Barrier hoops to disperse foot traffic

A super I follow posted this idea from an Ireland course.

Basically they use what look like painted croquet wickets to get people to walk on different parts of the lawn so over trafficked turf can recover.

Meanwhile the barrier isn't as visually offensive.

I could use these where my kids follow the same path out the back door all the time and wear out the grass.

Great for dogs too! I use small sections of fencing to do this as well, but I like the look of these better. Looks like it may be tripping hazard though when light is low.
