The golf course has had over 4 inches of rain fall on it in the last 24 hours! The rain has washed the sand to the bottoms of all the bunkers. The greens are soft and the rough is growing like crazy. We will work to repair the bunkers over the next two days. We will also spend extra time mowing the rough to bring it back to a manageable height all this week. The rain is also exposing the need to modify the surface and drains for number 9 green. We plan to make those structural repairs on number 9 in the fall of 2012. The program of removing bermuda grass (a weed) out of the rough on number 18 is becoming more visible. As I stated in my last posting, the rough will turn yellow on 18 and begin to fade out over the next few months. We will use a combination of tall fescue seed and sod to repair these areas throughout the fall.
