As founder, president, and principal architect of Lohmann Quitno, Bob provides outstanding, hands-on leadership and management of all LQ projects. Since its founding in 1984, the firm has enjoyed tremendous growth under Bob’s direction, and great success in both renovation and new golf course projects. Today the Lohmann name is synonymous with first class service and superior results and Bob’s work is well-regarded throughout the industry.

Bob’s roots in golf extend back to his early childhood in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, where his parents were managers at Tripoli Country Club. This early exposure to golf, along with some encouragement from his uncle Lee, a landscape architect and amateur golf course architect himself, led Bob to seek a career in the industry and a Bachelor’s degree in Landscape Architecture from the University of Wisconsin – Madison (1974). After graduating, Bob sought work with a young design firm composed of former apprentices of the renowned Robert Bruce Harris, where he became exceptionally qualified in all aspects of golf course design and construction management before starting his own firm.

Throughout his 35+ years of experience, Bob has established himself among the leaders in the golf industry, serving as President of the American Society of Golf Course Architects in 1998, while contributing numerous articles and serving extensively as a seminar speaker on the subjects of golf course and sports field design and construction techniques.

Testimonials

“Comments about the renovation at Westmoor have been overwhelmingly positive and many in the community, who are not members, have expressed their desire to be invited to play. We cannot thank Bob and Todd enough for maintaining their patience for so many years. I am pleased that our companies have such a mutually beneficial relationship and together we have persevered through some difficult challenges to create an outstanding golf facility.”

"As Golf Course Superintendent at Tippecanoe Lake Country Club, it has been my pleasure to be involved in two major projects with Bob and Todd, both completed on time and at budget. The Lohmann Quitno team is wonderful to work with, and our membership is very pleased with the results. In fact, our membership has grown since the completion of the projects and the excitement has them continuously asking me: ‘What's next?’”

Ronald J. Forks
Golf Course Superintendent, Tippecanoe Lake Country Club

“Like any facility contemplating a project, we had a vision of what we wanted. It takes a talented and focused company to interpret someone else’s vision and provide a product that compliments it exactly. The Lohmann Quitno team has that talent and focus. They provided us with a facility that meets every expectation we laid in front of them and one that we are extremely proud of. The foresight, planning and execution Bob and Todd brought to the table positioned Indian Creek well for many years to come.”

They understand the unique challenges that we face at each of our golf facilities and develop solutions that meet player expectations and that are cost effective. They have been a big key to our success!”

“Lohmann Quitno and their staff worked very hard to exceed the expectations of our membership resulting in the largest grounds project at Fort Wayne Country Club in recent history. We could not be happier with the leadership provided by Bob and staff for the concept, design and follow through.”

“The work that we have accomplished to date has been extremely well received by our members. Our board of directors, golf course superintendent, and I are so happy with our working experience with Todd that we are now preparing to embark on a complete long-term master plan for the entire facility. We eagerly look forward to a continued partnership with Lohmann Quitno.”
