Kevin Norby

Norby started his career as a land planner and landscape architect in 1976, but he didn't discover golf course architecture until 1990 when he met Don Herfort, a Minnesota based golf architect, and ASGCA Fellow. Don Herfort had suffered a heart attack while designing improvements at Superior National Golf Course in Lutsen, Minn. and Norby was asked to help finish the project.

For the next ten years, Norby worked with Herfort and was responsible for more than 80 projects throughout the central United States, Canada, and the Caribbean. Herfort passed away in 2011. Today Herfort Norby is located in Chaska, Minnesota and specializes exclusively in the design of golf courses and long-range master planning for golf courses.
