At this prestigious outdated golf course, to see a superintendent embarked on a ambitious journey to revamping an antique irrigation structure isn’t no surprise trick—what’s super noteworthy though, is one remaining around long enough to makeover it not just once, but two times.
Mikey Morris, the head honcho of the buildings and maintaining team, along with the modest caretaker, Mr. Don Roth been integral to the first makeover back in 1992 at our Crystal Downs. A decade or so passed, a sort of improvised solution really extended that life span of it, giving them a golden window to meticulously select an advanced irrigation system that boasted of the hottest technology! back and performance excellence.
The path to overhauling an ancient irrigation system on this golf course, so historic. Isn’t a tale that unheard of— it’s the length of tenure which is long enough to shake up systems twice, that deviates from what’s usually done?!
Morris and Roth heavily contributed to the setup of Crystal Down’s former system like in 1992. Their ingenious plans a decade later kept it functioning, creating a path that everyone can walk through to elect a newer golf course watering (irrigation) set up that carried premiere technology, back and operation expertise along with it.
Here’s the comprehensive blueprint of how they arrived to this worthwhile solution, noting down each step of their adventurous journey.
