Kikuyu sod arrived today

After three days of work this week preparing #1 fairway for sod, this is what it looked like.

Then two semi truck loads carrying 44 of these giant rolls of sod arrived, along with the installation crew from West Coast Turf.

Here is the crew in action, using their specially designed equipment to roll out the large rolls.

Before 9 am they had completed rolling out 26 rolls on the first fairway and they were finishing their cleanup.

Knowing that they had more sod here than area we had prepared, first thing this morning we removed the bermuda sod from the landing area of the 3rd fairway and prepared it for sod, by 11 am this area was completed.  We spent the remainder of the day cleaning up after the sod crew, began repairing damaged areas caused by equipment, and filling small gaps between the sod rows with sand. 
This is a learning process for us, next week we will tackle the 9th fairway, and if needed do some additional work on 3.
