Rees Jones certainly doesn't shy away from his feelings about Lookaway.
"Every hole, because of the topography and because of the wetlands and wooded holes and the openness, are all distinctly different. Lookaway is really a finesse golf course, which is probably why it has so many members that have stayed around from the beginning, because you don't have to be a long hitter to enjoy this course."
...Jones said it best about Lookaway and his designs:
"The satisfaction really comes from both restoring or redesigning or building new ones when it's really well accepted by the membership, as it has been by the membership of Lookaway. There are two different ways to look at it, the U.S. Opens and the PGAs, they want their championship courses to be a great test for the best in the game...and my other clients, where I build new courses, they want the course to be as enjoyable and a great test for the everyday player. I believe we accomplished that at Lookaway."
