Last weekend's severe winds brought down some rather unhealthy trees in the woodlot on #16. As you can see from the pictures, the trees that fell are out of play. However, this illustrates the need for constant tree care of the older trees on our golf course. Our department has been working away at this recently, but there is still an astonishing amount of work to be done. In this case of #16, we will get into this area once the ground in the woodlot is dry enough. As mentioned the damaged trees are out of play, but are rather unsightly and could pose some danger. If we do not get to these before the golf course opens, I will notify all members of the potential danger in this area.
With the great weather that we have had the last two days, we were able to get the tees shaped and all of the tee mix out to the tees. In this picture here, Derek Vergeer (our contractor) is finish grading #2 Tee to be ready for sod. Unfortunately the forecast is for rain the next couple of days and could hold us up for a bit. We are doing out best to complete these projects in a timely manner, of course with this blog we will keep you updated.
Nothing is out of play on any given shot!
