12 green 13 tee's

    If you have been out playing golf this past week you have seen the clearing being done behind 12 green and around 13 tee's.  This is being done by the Villa's.  They are clearing the under brush and dead and soft wooded trees.  They also need to make some repairs to the lake dam.  All healthy hardwood trees on our property were flagged and saved.  They will fix the ditch that runs through the area.  When finished this will look much better.  The most important part of this is the prevailing summer southwest air flow will help 12 green. The prevailing wind was non existent.  If we can get enough air movement in the valley we might be able to stop using the fan on 12 green.  Even if we still need to use the fan the added air flow will improve one of our weakest greens.  The whole area will be seeded when finished.  The cost to the Club for them to do this clearing is $0.00.  For the Club to do what they did would have cost us a months worth of labor for 4 men or added expense to rent the proper equipment to do the job they did.  This is a win win for the both of us.
