Driving Range Tee Project

 FINALLY...........renovation of the driving range tee!   


peeling off 30+ years of top dressing sand.....
making a dent....
the first of 80 dumps...... somewhere in the unreal region of around 1,400 tons of sand
Two swing joints straight up....top of the head was where the hitting surface was in 2021
Wall of sand at our shop now....will be used everywhere on course for the next decade 
getting closer to original level of driving range tee......
We re-configured sprinkler head spacing....with new head placement for optimal coverage

GMS boss Bill Nauroth surveying new wire trench .....shovel in hand for unknown reason 😲
Burying sprinkler head wire.....
A bit more shaping and leveling



leveling front slope of tee
Last drag before seeding....
Sod time......outlining the tee




Sod a bit thirsty.....
The morning after seeding......
Some germination..... 5days
8 days....
21 days.......   even with the bad lot of rye seed, we are getting some coverage with the blue grass. 

one month.....
2 months and open for business
