Sodding Starting on #8 Green

With temps below freezing, we are keeping sod inside the shop at night so we can continue laying it during the day.  The crew continues to battle the tough conditions to keep the renovation moving along.  Here we are laying sod on frozen ground....thank goodness we prepped the afternoon before.

Working on 8 Green Complex

8th and 15th Hole Joint Fairway Bunker

The new fairway bunker that separates the 8th and 15th fairways and greens.  The bunker is over 100 yards long and will be very natural looking by next summer.  This bunker will only be raked by machine 1 to 2 times per week.

A Dedicated and Talented Crew

Our very talented crew is responsible for bringing all the renovation work together.   Not only do they keep the golf course in great condition, they also do great work when it comes to construction.  Without them, none of the projects we have done would look as good as they do.
Thanks Guys!

#4 Green Complex Completed

4th green complex is now complete.  The ditch by the tee gets sodded on Monday and then we start on #8.

#4 Green Complex Progress

Green complex will be sodded tomorrow.  Changes include a green expansion to the left, new left front bunker, pushing the right bunker back a bit and creating an open approach and all new irrigation.

#5 Progress

We are about 90% done on #5.  We have to sod the new tees, the chipping area by the green and the alternate tees for #6 left of the 5th green.  There was significant work done to the hole including cutting the hillside down, building new tees, shifting the fairway, killing the left rough to create new native area, shrinking the green, constructing 7 bunkers plus 2 "native bunkers" and adding all new irrigation, along with rerouting the cart path.  We will be completely done on 5 on Monday and then back to 4 to finish the green complex.
