Yesterday we began to remove some of the larger trees associated with our project on #14. There are quite a few trees that we will take down, and we will be generating large volumes of debris. Our goal is to chip the debris and use the wood chips as mulch throughout the golf course. Since the ground conditions vary so much on the 14th hole we have had a hard time running loads in and out without tearing up the turf. We made the decision today to put a box on the back of our dump truck and aim the chipper into it. This will allow us to load a great deal of material into the truck, in one central staging area, reducing our frequency of driving in and out and potential damage to the turf.
