Surface Conditioning

Over the past few weeks, we have been working on improving the fairways. As we did last year, all the fairways, tees and approaches were verticut. Today is the last day of verticutting fairways. All the surfaces were also aerified. The tees and approaches received a thick coat of topdressing sand. The end result is a firmer surface for play, improved drainage and a healthier stand of grass.

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.
