The large pine tree on the right side of #12 fairway has been damaged by the high speed winds of a recent storm. The tree snapped about a third of the way up the trunk. The rest of the tree will have to be taken down as a result.
When the piece of the tree fell, it struck and damaged the tree next to it. The tree that was struck lost a substantial amount of it's canopy. We plan on climbing and cleaning up the tree in order to give it the best chance of surviving while at the same time keeping the golf course as safe as we can.
You can see from this photo the extent of the damage to the tree on the right. Nearly the entire left half of the canopy was knocked off from the falling tree. |
