Lightning Damage Hole #5
This past Sunday a tree inside of the cart path on #5( first landing area) was destroyed by lightning. It started at the top and traveled to the ground blowing bark across the fairway into the rough. Then the electricity entered our irrigation communication cable causing damage to 5 satellite boxes (this is where we control water from the field) on #'s 3-6. The tree was removed on Wed. as it had no chance to survive. On Thur. I have an outside contractor coming to make electrical repairs to the satellites. Below are a several pictures off the tree.
