Jimmy's Putting Green.....


At the entrance to the High Mesa subdivision is a beautiful waterfall with a giant bronze Elk.....directly across from the waterfall, Jimmy has decided to put a 3 hole putting green. MAN..... all the preparations!!! First you pack the ground, after it has been leveled, of course.Then you put a special gravel to fill in the hollow spots, then you have to put 6 inches of this special fill gravel, pack it and level it, then lay a special padding (so the ball will bounce right) gluing the seams,etc., lay the grass (2 different kinds) on top of that , glue the seams, use 7" galvanized spikes to nail it down, smooth it out, then 7 pounds per square foot of 2 kinds of special sand on top of the grass (spread amongst the grass). Absolutely insane! I'll post more pictures as it progresses.
