#15 drainage revisited

 It was roughly a year ago when we tackled a drainage project on the 15th fairway.  The fairway was extremely wet in the landing area.  To resolve the problem we install a herringbone drainage system in the landing area that would move the excess water into the nearby lake.

The fairway turned out very well.  In the past we had to shut the fairway down to all traffic from the 150 yard marker to the green each winter.

This year we were able to keep the fairway open and mowed all winter.  Some days were pretty wet, but the difference was the rate at which the fairway drained.

Here is a video of the water flowing from the fairway into the lake.

If you have any questions or concerns about the golf course please feel free to contact me.
