5 Tee Revamp

I'd like to thank Doug Mottin and his staff from Mottin Golf Course Renovations for the excellent work reshaping the black/blue tee on #5. The original tee on black/blue tee was not large enough to handle the traffic and we were forced to use sections on the back of the 12th tee for hitting. Another issue was the rough area in between the two tees was using up valuable space and needed to be corrected.
The back tee was a paltry 1200 sq. feet and after reshaping is now 2700 sq feet!! This new tee will give us many more tee placements to distribute the wear.

The back tee- half the width of the forward tee. 20+ft. of rough wasting space.

The machines arrive and digging begins. The mini-ex carves a soft taper off the back of 12 Tee.

Load after load hauled away and stock piled at our shop for future projects.

The floor almost completed to a 8" depth. This was then laser leveled for a small amount taper for drainage.

After drain lines were dug and pipes installed, approx. 80 tons of tee mix was added and leveled.

The surface was plate tamped(compacted) then spun with our bunker machine. Sod Arrives!

Penn -trio sod installed on the tee along with turf type tall fescue rough sod for the border.

FINISHED PRODUCT!

 The whole process went smoothly and seamlessly. Thank you to Doug, Kris, Brett and the crew for a fantastic job!
