12 Green Expansion





Today our crew worked on improving the green expansion on the front right of the 12th green.  This area was previously expanded, however do to poor soil quality and a high amount of traffic the turf was very thinned out.

We improved the area by removing the existing turf and digging down approximately 8 inches to replace the rootzone mix with a better quality material.  Once the soil was replaced we laid sod from our green nursery and topdressed and rolled the turf.

When the new turf roots over the course of the fall we anticipate that it will be able to handle the stress of the summer in the future.
