bare spots but golfers can now use the practice bunker.
Second ProjectRemoving beach trees to get air
flow though the golf course
• All thebeach trees cut down and placed in piles to be shreddedby the wood chipper.
• This is after all the trees have been cut down and put through the wood chipper
Third Project
We had to install a drainage ditch and drainage pipe in front of the 5th green.
• Cut a ditch in front of the 5th green from one side of the rough to the other side
• The edges of the ditch filled to the top with water.
• Ran a drainage pipe across the drainage ditch
The ditch was then filled with rocks and sand was placed on top so the sod could be put back flat and level.
• The sod was put back on top and then seeded with perianal ryegrass and watered everyday.
