New Black Tee Box Constructed on #14
When the black tees where officially added to the scorecard a couple of years ago, #14 left us in a bit of a tricky spot. The current red tee box did not offer enough variety to shorten the hole enough and the fairway is far enough away from the tee, that the hole would then be too short from the black tees. As result the tees unfortunately ended up in the rough, which is certainly not a great place to tee off from. As promised, we have constructed a new tee box at the yardage designated for the black tees on #14. This new tee should also help improve the condition of the red tee box, by removing some of the traffic stress that the already shaded, weak tee has to endure. It may take a little time before our maintenance practices cause the tee to actually look like a tee, but we do hope to have the tee open for play sometime this summer.

After painting out the tee and orienting it in the proper direction, sod was removed in house and place in a previously prepped winter kill area on the same hole |

Contractor came in to properly level the tee with a laser grade |

The sod was laid in house. The tee has rooted and is ready for mowing and topdressing! |
