I am starting on Monday the modification of two old Gordon greens that simply have too much slope - the one has (7-8% slope on 70% of the surface and roughly 5% on the few areas they try to pin). It is a last resort for me but needs to be done. This is not a pure restoration project so it makes even more sense to address it. If anyone is interested in seeing the process live, feel free to email me and I will see if we can arrange a time for a small group to come out and see how things are being done (course is just outside Philadelphia and I can give details on the email). You might find it very educational to see all that is involved in the process.
I will take photos throughout and might post something later when complete (if I ever learn how to post photos here again)
