More about Trees

As you play the course (especially 9, 10 and 18) or use the old putting green, you might notice "loose bark" on the ground. This material is truly just that.. "bark". The bark comes from the Sycamore trees. They shed because the bark is brittle in nature and rapid growth of the tree. They will shed bark from late June until late November! We rake up the bark every few days. The issue is the bark sheds almost every day and all day long! We will continue to do our best to keep the play free of bark as best we can.

Golf Course Update (Groundhog Day Version)

Another day without rain. That has been the story for the last 2 weeks. We have been working hard to keep the course with just enough water to keep the plants alive and still be firm and fast. You will also notice that we are no longer mowing the intermediate cut around fairways. With the planned addition of 3 to 4 acres of fairway, it was deemed unnecessary to keep it. If you have any questions regarding the renovation, please feel free to contact me at your convenience. Thank you and see you on the course!
