The chipping green project is coming along nicely. We started the project last fall during aerification. We used the plugs that we harvested from the greens to create a new chipping green. My vision was to have the green represent the golf course much better and also give our members many more options to practice their short game.The small chipping green is now roughly double the size. It has three distinct tiers that flags can be placed on the green. Many more shots can be played around the green by either running it up the tier or having a shot that might land on one tier and filter down to the next. I wanted to exercise the imaginations of the golfers. If you want to increase your short game imagination, Steven, Sam and Brandon can show you some very unique shots that will not only impress your friends, but might save you a couple strokes as well.
We are still in the process of coming down to the final height of cut that will match the greens on the course. The green will provide a true comparison to the golf course. If you have any questions about the new chipping green or want to add some ideas to the practice center
improvement plan, please feel free to contact me.
