Large White Oak #18 Green

Today's post will be a series of pictures showing the structural issues with the Oak that sits next to the 18th green.

In these photos you can see a crack in the center of the tree and one running up the right limb.







These photos show the cavity in the base of this tree.


These photos show some of the cabling that is holding the tree up.

These photos show old cabling that has grown through a limb (left) and some more splitting in one of the main leaders (right).

  1. Be careful sawing through this old oak tree - I believe my old King Cobra pitching wedge is somewhere in that cavity. The triple bogey I took on 18 should explain everything...

    Thanks for the excellent, thorough communication, Eric!
