  Run a paved path down the center of each fairway.

 
Gives an aiming target
Rewards a straight drive with a big distance bounce
Eliminates cart path bounces into hazards
Minimizes walks and speed play on cart-path-only days

 
Please note -   :) :) :)


I've been saying that for years.
(maybe not at Palmetto though...)

Not yet but planning on using it on a project before summer is over...The BBB bunker people use something that I had thought might work but they told me sunlight would affect it.  Supposedly sunlight does not affect this product...
