In general, the whole golf course looks like the photo above, with limbs and sticks covering all the tees, roughs and fairways. The good news is, we have just the team needed to get it back to where we were on Friday! The guys are working incredibly hard today and in a couple days, this will be a distant memory! I'm always proud of the fact that I get to work with these guys every day!
We called in a professional tree service to cur this white pine on #8. The way the tree twisted and split made me very uneasy to have staff saw it. Trees like this can react in a variety of ways when the log rolls off of the stump. We never attempt jobs like this, where there is a level uncertainty.
Above and below, is the tree on #8 that we removed on Friday because of a dangerous crack it had. With the tree on the ground, you can see a majority of it is hollow.
As we make our way around the golf course, we are noticing more limbs and trees on the ground, including this large Hemlock that fell across the back tee on #8.
After 5 holes of clean-up, we generated a pretty large pile that is growing every 15 minutes.
