Sod on 13, 16

We have repaired the "sand pit" in front of 13 green. This area has been a sore spot all year, and thanks to a private donation we were able to repair last week.  With the leftover sod we were able to repair two small areas on 16 fairway also.
Late fall is not normally a good time for sod projects as the turf is not growing and the roots will not anchor the sod down. A heavy rain could float the sod or cause erosion underneath. However, since these areas are quite flat and the problem on 13 is very much in play the Greens committee and I decided it was best to do it now rather than wait.
Here are pictures of the two repaired spots on 16. (The picture I took did not come out if I can I will post one later).
