One of the areas of the course that was starting to show it's ugly head was the black liner that surrounds the green. The liner is in place to hold the 10" of sand that is underneath the greens in place and to also protect the sand from any contamination of the surrounding soils. For whatever reason the liners have continued to move upward and cause a little irritation to some of our golfers when they are putting or chipping from the collar. A couple weeks ago we had a couple guys on our staff go out with razor blades and trim the liner so that nothing was showing on the surface. We will make an better effort to stay on top of this situation so that the liner doesn't impact any one's putts or chips.
