Abstract/Contents: | Overviews the preliminaries of constructing a new green. Discusses the preparations made, including the planning of proposed and existing contours and the calculation of the quantity of supplies needed. Suggests booking a Drott with the 4-way bucket because "it will both dig and carry and is not too damaging to the turf it traverses provided it keeps straight." Recommends introducing gentle folds in the putting area. Details that after the installation of the drains and drainage layer, top-soil can be spread. |
