That Doesn't Look Right

At some point in time, many years ago, a clay tile behind the 12th green was installed to drain part of the shop area.  When it was installed they must have realized (too late) that their line was going to run into a tree.  Instead of slowly moving the line away from the tree, a sharp S-Curve was made with two 90 degree fittings to go directly around the tree.

Obiviously, this drain was always clogging up because of the restricted water flow, and if any debris came through the pipe, it would get stuck in the drain and cause it to backup.  This week, we were finally able to fix this problem for good.
That's better.  Nice and straight like it should be!
