TurfHound Installation: 16-Station Tee Line (TL103), 3 Pro Teaching/Fitting Stations in training center
The Challenge
Wilmington Country Club wanted to provide members with a high
performance surface for those days when turf conditions prevent hitting
off grass and for regularly scheduled “mat days.” Aesthetics and
durability were important because members walk over it to get to the
grass. It had to withstand heavy foot traffic and the impact of hitting
balls from it.
The Solution
"Our decision to install TurfHound was based on performance and
appearance,” said Joe Guillebeau, Golf Professional. “We were in the
process of resurfacing the entire range so we were able to set the tee
line in at just the right height. For us it’s better to have it all in
one piece because it looks terrific and it makes mowing easier.”
The Results
"Now when we can’t provide a good natural turf we still can provide a
high performance surface. We have 2000 members and they can take a lot
of turf up in a day. They’re never going to come out here to find a day
when there isn’t a good surface to practice on." |
