Poplar Grove in Amherst is Sam Snead's final design, drawn up from 2002 with his son Jack and Ed Carton, formerly of Tom Fazio's firm, as part of a planned Sam Snead Golf Trail. It opened in 2004, after Snead's death, on a historic estate whose brick manor house (now the clubhouse) dates to 1773, and Golf Digest named it a Best New Upscale Public course in 2005.
