Realigning Tees

Today I started realigning the bermuda tees with the fairways. Over time the tees get out of alignment due to mowing. One to two times per year we like to straighten them back up so when you tee off you are properly aligned with the fairway. This is a very time consuming process and takes me almost ten minutes per tee depending on the size, and there are nearly fifty bermuda tees on the course. In the picture below you will see four metal stakes in the four corners and a rope wrapped around them. I start at one corner of the tee and place a stake then I pick the corner in front of me and place a stake. Then I tie a rope to the first stake and pull it in a straight line to the next stake, moving the second stake left or right depending on the alignment. I then do the same step three more times and once finished we have a perfectly square and perfectly aligned tee box.
