Course Update 1/17/19

Tree work continues on Lakes #4 and our productivity has increased now that the ground is frozen.  Several large Maple and Cherry trees have come down along the right of the cart path that will have a noticeable improvement in turf quality.  Another benefit from removing trees is it opens up more width for tee shots at the beginning of the fairway.

View from the blue tee.  Notice how the right side of the hole has opened up by removing the trees that were growing into the line of play.  We also plan to remove a few trees down the left side that are affecting tee shots
Another load of wood being hauled out
This maple tree had a large crack up one side that created an opening for fungus to attack the wood
Here's a view of the infected trunk and you can see the significant amount of wood rot
