Making Progress

We have been making some progress with our projects on the course. Feeley Landscaping installed three new 4 inch caliper Red Oaks on the 5th hole Monday to replace the storm damaged oak and elm that we lost. The irrigation system is up and running as we needed to water some areas yesterday due to the dry and warm conditions. The beauty of doing large course projects in the winter such as the work on the bunkers is great because it does not interfere with member play at that time year. One negative can been seen in the photos below where a staples used to hold the bunker liner in place was hammered into an irrigation pipe causing a leak that was not detected until we charged the system. We are working on the stumps, prepping for sod on the greens and working behind 8 green for the rest of the week. I will also be out with a hose if the temperatures stay in the 80's. It's March right?
