Business Name:Mr. Tee Laser Leveling, Inc., in Thousand Oaks, California
Abstract/Contents:Discusses leveling turf at the Sunset Hills Country Club in Thousand Oaks, California, with a laser level. Notes that superintendent David Wolfsbauer had "the tee box on his fifth hole leveled so that it could be resodded." Suggests that "what they did in four and a half hours [at Sunset Hills], it would take four guys at least two and a half days to get an acceptable surface." Discusses the equipment used by Mr. Tee Laser Leveling, stating that "the laser device can be programmed for any grade." Informs that "Mr. Tee can level a baseball field in a day, or a large soccer field in two days." Mentions that "Mr. Tee charges about 15 cents per square foot on most jobs...about 60 percent of its business has been in the sports field arena."
