Topdressing Fairways

Today,  we began the process of topdressing the fairways with straight sand. The sand is added to make the fairways more firm, make them drain faster and reduce the thatch layer. Once the sand is applied, we broom all the sand into the grass canopy. We have been doing this three time a season for over five years. The process takes us between 3-5 days.

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.
