Irrigation Head Blowout

We had a pretty wild irrigation blowout on #5 fairway this afternoon. A fairway blower, somehow cracked an irrigation head off its swing joint and created some excitement amongst the grounds staff for a few minutes. 

The leak was turned off within 5 minutes with minimal damage and was repaired within the hour.

This is one of those "freak" accidents that is very uncommon, but usually happens on Friday when the course is busy and the weather is perfect.

One hour later you couldn't tell anything had happened with a beautiful repair by the grounds team.
