Prepping the course during Masters week

Getting the course ready for golfers during Masters week is always a fun experience. With golfers going off the first tee as early as 7:30 it can be pretty challenging to get the course ready. Now don't get me wrong, I would not trade places with anyone when we are out there in the dark, getting the course ready and being able to see the sun come up over the horizon, it's perfect. The entire crew steps up for this very busy week by coming in earlier than normal and we take even more pride in our jobs, knowing that Augusta Country Club is being visited by golfers from all over the world. In one of the pictures below you see the clubhouse lit up in the background, you can also make out two small lights in the middle of number one fairway. These are our fairway mowers getting an early start on mowing fairways.
