December 2013 (9th Steps)

Re-design of the steps leading up to the men's 9th tee..
We firstly took the old sleepers out without damaging them, we pulled the old borders up as they we're rotting away, we then re shaped the steps and got the levels right using pegs, lines and a spirit level, we then secured the new borders in place and cut the old sleepers down in to shape before securing them to our borders, once in place it was then ready to concrete.
Once the concrete was set we astro turfed the steps making sure they we're screwed tight to each sleeper.. Then finally we soiled, levelled and turfed along the steps ready for play!

Please let us know your thoughts on the astro turf as it could be possible to use this on other areas of the course if successful
