The below photos are of Course Architect, Jason Straka discussing the 4th Greens Complex with Lead Shaper, Justin Carlton. The two will visit quite frequently as Justin creates Jason vision for each hole with the use of the large Bulldozers seen in the previous videos.


The pitch / angle of the putting surface all starts at the base (subsoil) of the green. The subsoil will match the contours of the putting surface that each of you will be putting on. As you can see in the below photo, Justin uses a level to see the exact pitch of specific locations on the subsoil. This ensures that the "pinable" locations are fair and challenging.





Should you have any questions or comments, please feel free to send them to heron@theoaksclub.com or call the Heron Hotline at 966-6940.

Please remember the entire golf course is a construction zone. To ensure your safety, we kindly request that you not access the course unless approved by a Implementation Team Member.

*Please be on the lookout for a Progress Update later this week.
