One of the golf course maintenance staff’s winter projects was to elevate the mature tree canopies around the golf course. To my knowledge this has never been done on these 30-40 year old trees. We have rented a cherry picker lift and currently cut through hole 6. We are looking to finish the front 9 next week and hit a few key areas around the back 9 before the rental term is complete.
There has been some areas damaged from the tires of the lift and we will be repairing the tire tracks with soil and seed to regrow.
The last pruning was from an ice storm about 18 yrs ago.
