No no no!! We haven't created a new lake without informing the committee!!! All this water on the fairway is down to the disruption we caused by trying to drain the right hand side of the rough out into a ditch to create room for a ladies toilet. This and the unusual amount of rain we've had has resulted in the beginning of the fairway being flooded.
We HAVE to leave the right hand side (in the deep rough) to drain down naturally. Believe it or not, there are drains in there, this water just has to wait its turn to go down it! Its not until then, that we can start to pump the fairway out over the mound, and into the drain. To combat this, we need to try and contain the water into the right hand side by building a mound of soil. Then, for the start of the season the right hand side will be RED STAKED and deemed a lateral water hazard using rule 26.

Why not make the lake a feature and divert the stream into it?
ReplyDeleteHi, this is something that has been mentioned a few times to me. I'm sure it would be worth discussing at the next committee meeting. Thank you for for our first comment!
