OK, we've had 20 straight days of rain. My neighbor's yards look like crap(tons of clumps). My yard looks awesome! This deck clears grass out phenomenally!

Looks like about a 15-20 yard chip shot to that hole marker you have shown...

Ha! I'd still either be down that storm sewer grate you see to the right or through the neighbors front window straight ahead!

Yeah, every time I grab the wedge I wonder where the ball will be when I finish.

Actually that is setting 5!! I raised it up because too many weeds were infesting with lower settings.
Letting the roots get established and letting it fill in before it goes dormant for the winter so weeds don't set up.

I cut it a different direction about every 2-3 cuts or so, so as not get a 'grain' in it or too many tire tracks set up.
It gets sprayed by a professional outfit(Chem Lawn). If not weeds will infest very quickly here.......VERY quickly. A month ago it had a LOT of weeds. I complained a little and they took care of me and sprayed them at no extra charge.

Bermuda grass, baby!

Won't be a couple weeks or so before it goes dormant. Will take a few pics as it goes dormant. Some parts will get "tiger-striped" as it does. Looks pretty cool then.

I am still enthralled with bermuda, coming from the north myself.

Cure for that problem: Make sure your head is behind(to the right of the ball for right-handed player)the ball at impact. Guaranteed you are lurching forward.
