First mow on Bobcat greens

With a beautiful sunrise this morning, we began the first mow on our newly sprigged TifEagle bermudagrass greens.  The greens were sprigged 2 weeks ago and have begun to grow in very nicely.  The height of cut on our first mow is .170" with an eventual goal of lowering the mowing height to around .120".  Also notice the newly laid sprigs on the collar/approach (2 days old).

 

 

Sod going down and lake interconnect install

The Bobcat project includes the installation of 6 lake interconnect pipes.  Below is a photo of work in progress replacing the compromised pipe between the 2 lakes on #5 (tee and green).  The old metal pipe is removed, a gravel bedding placed in the trench and new HDPE pipe installed in its place.

 

 

Excitement was brimming as sod began to go down on Monday morning.  #7 green surround was the first one to receive sod.  We will be sodding loops around greens and bunkers, as well as all slopes, an sprigging all areas in between.
