Putting it back

Irrigation has been installed on the first, the lines compacted, and cleaned up with our tractor drawn grader. Some refer to it as a Viking, others TG, regardless... it's a great little bit of equipment.

With the lines in and cleaned up, we're replacing the topsoil on this hole. By the time this is done, the same will happen on 18, which connects with the first.














This shows the connected 1st and 18th. It's from a marketing map I'd created about a year ago, and the differences between this rendering and the finished product are interesting. The green on 18 is almost 3 times larger; 1600 square meters. There is a large hill to the left of the 1st green (Goat's Hill) with the only bunker, cut into the side of the hill flanking the left of the green (Goat's Bunker; it's blind). A Gorge cuts in front of the forward tee (Goat's Valley). No fairway bunker on 1, and three greenside bunkers on 18. We almost cut a tiny one into the back left of the green on 18, and skipped the three bunkers.
