Golf Course Update

The rain has finally stopped (for now). Llanerch got over 5 inches of rain in the last 48 hours! The course has always drained well but it is going to take some time after taking all this rain. We will have to keep carts off the course for now until the ground drains some more. I will continue to reevaluate the course throughout the day. It is our goal to get carts out every day but this rain has really soaked the course. We, as green keepers, are even restricted on where we can drive and what we can mow without damaging the course. We appreciate your patience.

Restoration Update

Today marks the beginning of mobilization of equipment on # 8 for the upcoming restoration. Our golf course contractor is Total Turf and with golf course architect Brian Schneider from Renaissance Golf, they will be teaming up to open a new chapter in Llanerch's storied history. You can also follow the progress on Twitter @BrendanJByrne01.
With the help of architects Brian and Blake, we are now seeing what the new bunkers look like. This one is on 10 green right side. They will not have the fescue "eyebrow" we have had in the past. For more updates, please follow me @BrendanJByrne01 on Twitter.

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!
