Jane and Walt Dennis Golf Performance Center at OSU

The Jane and Walt Dennis Golf Performance Center is a unique facility that allows players to practice the entire range of short game skills up to 60 yards. The center also features an undulating green and bunker complex, a putting surface divided into sections to accommodate different Stimpmeter speeds, and a hydraulic putting “floor,” which is equipped with computerized technology that allows players to analyze putting techniques and practice sidehill lies.

Elements of the new facility include three practice greens (two bent grass and one bermudagrass), two sand traps, a grass bunker, flat putting area with filming capability, tee boxes with filming capability and a four corner net system, fitness room, coaches and assistant coaches’ offices, conference room, team locker rooms, video analysis room, team lounge, trophy lounge for recruits and parents, and space for club storage and repairs.

This facility will level the playing field against teams that can practice year round in warmer climates and teams with existing facilities. Sands Decker is proud to have been part of the great team led by Ruscilli Construction and GBBN Architects.
