Never hugged a tree. Do know that we do NOT own trees that are not on our property and do understand that limbs can fall on people and that greens are terribly expensive to move. Usually a green is NOT put that close to a tree, but now that I think of it, there is a huge oak close to a green on Bogart. It hasn't been touched as far as trimming.

Pooh is right that an oak limb gesmashed a golf cart last year on Heron.

I love the way the oak trees look and this is a very unusual example of a tree very overtrimmed. I haven't ever seen one like this .This is a first for me.

I don't think it is a trend. Do YOU?

A real golfer wouldn't ask that the course be made easier. A real golfer plays the course the way he/she finds it.

What does the golf course management say?
