New Tee Distance Markers 26/1/2016

We started by taking the existing yard plates in, they had seen some wear and tear over the years. Alot of the concrete Tee stones had broken into parts making the Tee area look untidy and a hazard for our mowers. It was about time they needed changing!!!

After all the yard plates had been brought into the Greenstaff shed we took a wire brush to them to take off any scum and debris. Afterwards we gave them a hot jet wash so they came up looking like new.

 This rubber crumb is what we have used for the base of our new Tee stones, Its the same idea as the new bunkers that have been lined with rubber crumb on 4,7,9,and 11. The gluey resin which is set off by temperatures and moisture levels, within 2hrs it has already started to harden. After the rubber crumb has been poured into the already made sunken tee holes, I placed the refurbished Tee plates with some resin and set flush making sure no mowers would hit the Tee stones. 

This is the final product, I'm fairly happy with the final finish of the tee stones costing nothing in parts or material just man hours. hopefully they will last a while and making the overall tee area look a bit smarter. 

The Mapledurham wildlife has already been scraping and ripping up the rubber crumb, my guess would be the rabbits. So over the next few weeks we may be making some repairs to the Tee stones.
