The fifth hole on Cedar Pines, a municipal nine-hole golf course in Andover, Kansas, suffered damage last year that has necessitated redoing the green. Rather than rebuild it in a conventional way, the course has opted to install a synthetic grass system for the 3,000 sq. ft. green. Installation is currently taking place. The sod has been stripped away and the underlying root barrier and separation geotextile is being placed. Next up, a two-part base will be installed before the turf is secured. The system will include four holes in the green (with adjustable plugs) so course managers can vary the play.
