Wow! Greg Hufner, from our contractor Total Turf is standing by a 6 foot long rock that we pulled out of the back right side of 18 green! So far, we have found over 5 large rocks on the right of 18 green that weigh at least half a ton! Total Turf has been great in finding ways to remove them and put them some where else on the course. It is funny what "buried treasure" you find at Llanerch.
Starting yesterday, the construction crew began sodding the 18th green complex. They have installed bentgrass for the fairway extensions, low cut bluegrass for the intermediate cut and turf type tall fescue for the rough. They also installed some fine fescue on the bunker edges. We plan to finish sodding by tonight but might need to purchase a small quantity more next week to fix some construction wounds.
