I think a picture can tell a 1000 words so I took a lot of photos of my Supreme Green during all phases of the construction. Bruce also had some photos on his website and that is how I think I initially found him. Here’s a full range of photos, with descriptions, from my golf farm. This is going to be a long post, but if you’re keen to SEE the full story about the process involved, then you’ll enjoy scanning through:




































The next series of photos are from the tee construction. To help keep costs down Bruce recommended I build these myself (I have two tees). Anyone that know me understands that I’m hopeless when it comes to construction and anything that resembles hard work, so I called on the brother-in-law and his mate. It was a bit of fun, especially with the dodgy tip truck that I got to drive.


The following images are from when the turf was getting laid. The golf green was built on top of a horse arena (don’t tell the previous owners) and the grass was going to take too long to grow so I bit the bullet and got some turf trucked in. The turf is the same fairway grass used at the Coolum Resort. It should be pretty handy in a few more months.

Here are some final happy snaps of the tee and putting green. At time of writing the green is 4 months old and it is going strong. I can’t fault it and I love it, using it almost every day. It really is a little bit of golfing paradise.

A lot of sweat must have gone into building your dream! It comes no surprise to those who know you that none of it was yours. Who rakes the bunkers for you now?
Ruggy: I learned from the very best. You’re a true champion when it comes to doing very little but still looking busy. I’m waiting for you to visit so the place can get a good tidy up…
Hey Cam, Congratulations mate that looks terrific, you should be very proud! Not to mention exercising your finely tuned work dodging abilities coming to the fore! Can’t wait to get up there for a look! cheers
Thanks Hinchy – you’re welcome anytime for some golf and a beer!
Thanks for your hospitality today Cameron, it was great to get up and see what the rest of the family have been raving about. And the raving was completely justified. Your place is a ton of fun, practical, and just quality.
Won’t be the last visit I hope,
Thanks again,
Simon
Good stuff Simon. No worries. If you could spend sometime working your short game you’d definitely drop a few more shots. Let me know your thoughts re the training tools. You’re welcome back anytime (and the Old Boy 🙂 )
