Construction update

We have finally had some good construction weather!  Twelve of the last fourteen days and been dry and it shows with the progress being made on the course.  Five, six and seven greens all have drainage, gravel and mix in them.  Drainage, gravel and greens mix are being installed on three and four this week, as well.  Storm drainage is complete on five and seven.  Six will be complete this week.  We will also begin installing irrigation this week.  The Sanders irrigation crew arrived last night and this should really get things moving.

As far as grassing goes, we are waiting on turf farms.  They all seem to be three to four weeks behind because of the cold winter and wet spring.  Once the farms are ready to start harvesting sod and sprigs, the irrigation will be in the ground and we will be ready to start growing some grass!!

On the existing holes, the crew has been working very hard over the last couple of weeks to get the bunkers in great shape.  All bunkers surrounds have been mowed and we are in the process of edging all of the zoysia grass.  We are also making sure that all of the sand depth is consistent.  So far they look great!

  1. Thanks for the update Jay. Can't believe we are less than 11 months away now. Please continue to keep us updated on the details of the new nine and thanks to you and the crew for all of the hard work on the existing nine. Course is in great shape - especially the greens!
