We have finally reached the day that the old bunkers and the problems that were associated with them will be behind us. The construction crew moved into action and started to dismantle the fairway bunker on #12 and the bunker complexes on #13. We are already finding things that have caused us a lot of problems one which we already know of was that the bunkers were not deep enough and the second is the drainage install was not up to the standards that it should of been. I am sure we will see more things down the road that will surprise us. In the end it is a very exciting time and when next season rolls around this will be a proud moment for all of us. I will post a lot of pictures almost daily on the progress as it happens.
We have also begun to top dress fairways, we started on #12 and #13 and will be moving forward.
