One of the goals of this greens renovation, besides expanding all the greens back to their original dimensions, is to take the opportunity to soften some slopes and flatten pinnable areas to make the greens more playable. One of the bigger adjustments we have planned is to increase the front pin area on #12. We are adding approximately 1,250 square feet to the front of the green which will substantially improve accessibility from approaching shots and make putting on this pin area much more feasible. As you can see in the picture above, Fleetwood is beginning to remove the soil and make the shape of the new front edge. Once the soil is removed, they will begin installing the necessary drainage pipe, gravel and greens mix to match the existing greens profile. Over the next few days, they will complete this work so the whole green can be rototilled and the rest of the process can continue as we get ready to spring these back nine greens sometime late next week. We are excited to complete this work and I'll be sure to post some pictures of this area once the final contours are set and we're ready for sprigs!
