Since spending the winter removing dead and/or dying trees, we are making a push to replant. As you can see here, we have over 50 trees just dropped off on property to plant throughout the course. The main concentration of hedges and trees are on the left of #2 fairway, #4 tee, #17 tee and the 8th hole. Even though it takes about 2-3 years for the plantings to really start "maturing", you will still see much improved horticultural specimens right away! That is not to say some beautiful new fall foliage later this year!
Starting yesterday, the construction crew began sodding the 18th green complex. 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.
