Progress. Three rolls of artificial turf are here.
If you want to help set up a green or tee box sponsorship message me. The cost of an elevated tee box is $75, a green sponsorship is $50.

First green marked and burned, 17'x21'. Looking for 4.25 pvc pipe to use as cups and 1/2" pvc to use as flag sticks.
The goal is 8 holes for under $1500, no debt.
Love it or hate it, the end result will be a functioning pitch and putt. No debt allows me to put revenue towards improvements. My strategy.
Don't you love the purple turf? 14 cents a square foot...

Spent part of the day in Waxahachie looking at used turf.
Green is traditional, but they have some wild colors for about 60% off.
Seriously considering the wild approach. The pitch and putt isn't designed with the country club clientele in mind. Blue collar working folks will join this club.
DM me if your interested in joining or helping with construction of the course in lieu of cash.

Working on different course layouts. Challenging.

Choices?
Lots of options and decisions to make in the coming months.
Different colored turf is cheaper, but the infill hasn't been removed. 2000 pounds versus 630 pounds for green fill removed, transportation from DFW is a consideration.
My time 🤣🤣🤣 this old house is killing me.
I need to dig out the greens and add base for drainage. 3 inches isn't much, but I'm not young.
In the meantime, killing trees that need to be removed and mowing where the first 3 holes will be constructed.

Hole #1, mowed. Picture was taken from tee box location. Tree on the right comes down and pile of branches burned.
Way down at the other end, about 75 yards away, the green.
It's a process.

Hole 1 is 77 yards, hole 2 is 52 yards.
Several small trees need to be cut down and 2 pecan trees need limbs trimmed.
Part of the pitch/putt charm is simplicity and obstacles to challenge golfers.
Keep your head down and follow thru.

Elevated tee boxes, 4'x7'.
We're looking to provide a fun place for families and singles to spend 90 minutes or so playing 9 holes.
