Soil sampling of the greens

Two weeks ago I was tasked with collecting soil samples from six of the greens on the course for testing at a lab. I was given six plastic sandwich bags and each was labelled with tge number of which green the sample needed to be collected from.

The head greenkeeper said that I need to take cores from five different areas on each green. Each time I needed to mix the soil from yhe core and place a small quantity into the bag. This in the hope of achieving a representative sample of the soil on each green.
