The driving range tee opened on May 24th, 2019. We have been using it hard for the last two months and now we have seen how the turf species and drainage/irrigation updates have been helping us. Recovery time is currently about 6 weeks from when a station is used to when it can be used again. Sod is being used on stations where a "line divot pattern" wasn't followed or where a station just encountered heavy foot traffic. Please see the pictures below for a visual explanation of the current benefits the new range tee is providing.

Stations closest to cart barn are used most! |
Example of a proper "line divot pattern" which is being used very frequently now by WCCC members and guest |
