Drain and gravel #14

Here is a picture of the beginning process of the drain instillation and the gravel layer install.

Mix #17


Here are a few pics of the mix being installed on #17 green.  We started on this green today and will move along the river holes this week with the new fill.

Trash

Some of the trash buried under 8 green along with the stumps - a shovel head.

Material out of 8 green

Not good

We are having to dig down about 24-36" past the sub-base on #8 trying to remove all the garbage that the green was built with. We were pulling out roots, stumps, and just straight black muck. This area was humping and not setting up so we have to dig it all out and replace it with clean compactable fill. This could have developed over time or at least made worse by the poor drainage grading in this green.

Here we go again

Why me???

Good bye. .

It's making my day a little better to see #5 green get plowed under. I'm not going to miss this one!
