A look back

















The sketch is from May 11, 2007. I'd been on site for a couple weeks.

The tees Sand Valley are largely rectangular or box shaped, but my thought was to have tees interconnected so the angle of play would vary more and would be easier to maintain. Hence the "Continuous Mowing Tees" caption for the sketch.

With this concept the tees could be mown with a minimum of lifting the cutting units.

With the material we had at hand would have been easy to construct, and virtually ideal for the concept.

The tees on 8 are surrounded by sand, but certainly don't resemble this sketch... though their banks will.
