I forgot to post these pictures last week when I took them. #8 has progressed nicely and is basically ready for sod, though by springtime it will likely need some more finish work and cleanup. Because we filled in a natural drainage way between the two tees to add teeing ground, we had to add a drain basin to the south side of the tee. It should capture water that would have ran between the two old tee boxes.
The tractor is parked on what will be part of the tee surface. Here's a pic of the added ground between the tees and to the south of the blue tee.
Overall, we are pleased with the way it came out, with a minimal amount of money and time we were able to add around 30% more teeing space to each tee box. After the latest round of snow melts I will try to take pics of the finished product.
