9th Hole Before and After

The 9th hole is dramatically different now than before.  The tees were moved to the right of the service road, making the hole a slight dogleg out of a chute.  Bunkers were added to the left side to force the golfer to hit a cut off the tee and 3 new cross bunkers were built across the front of the green to make the player have to commit for possibly going for the green in 2.  Also, a new black tee was added to lengthen the hole a bit to 560 yards.

1st Tees Ready For Sod

The first tees will be finished tomorrow when we sod the tee tops.  The new tees will not open until spring of 2014

Progress on 18

We are moving at such a fast pace that I cannot keep up with taking pictures to keep everyone up to speed on our progress.  We are 90% finished with the green complex on 18 and we still have to construct the new fairway bunker and tee complex.  We will have the green complex finished by the weekend and we are now also working on the 1st tees that are adjacent to the 18th green.  We are hoping by middle of next week we are out of this area and start working on #12.  We will do the tees of 18 in December.

#9 Progress

The 9th hole is nearly complete, with no green side bunkers and 3 cross bunkers that now front the green for protection.

Breaking Ground on 9th Green Complex

Work is now underway on the green complex of #9.  Once the cross bunkers are under construction, we will close the hole and open the 1st hole.  We are hoping to be done with #9 by early next week.

1st Green Complex Finished

Now that the green complex is finished, we will be rebuilding the tee complex in mid to late November and the 1st hole will be complete from tee to green.

#2 Before And After......

The 2nd hole is nearly complete.  We will be putting bunker sand in tomorrow and then by Friday the hole can open for play.  Over the course of the next few weeks, the old tees to the right will be removed and converted to fescue.  The dirt from the old tees will be used for constructing new bunkers on the 9th hole.
