As you play the golf course, you will start to see black spots on some of the fairways. It is the divot mix we use to help fill in the fairways with bentgrass. These damaged areas are usually spots where either a divot was not replaced or divot mix was not used. I am happy to say that divot repair has improved dramatically this year but we still need your help. If your shot produces a divot, always replace it. If the divot "explodes" or is just a shredded mess, please use divot mix from your cart or caddy. Thanks.
Starting yesterday, the construction crew began sodding the 18th green complex. They have installed bentgrass for the fairway extensions, low cut bluegrass for the intermediate cut and turf type tall fescue for the rough. They also installed some fine fescue on the bunker edges. We plan to finish sodding by tonight but might need to purchase a small quantity more next week to fix some construction wounds.
