Last week saw some incredible amounts of rain in the area. We missed a good deal of it but still are a bit wet today. With the forecast set for even more rain, we felt it was a good time to topdress sand on the greens and approaches. As you can see in the above picture, we are only using a light amount. This will help to give the greens more firmness and ensure a smooth roll.
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!
