Just a quick post of some pictures about the process of installing new sod at 5 left green. I hope to have some video of the process showing the entire procedure in the future. In the meantime these will illustrate a little of the process involved removing the old Poa and preparing it for the new bentgrass.
As a note, we used the old poa to create a new greens height nursery left of 7th fairway.
