As we start a new week today, I thought I would blog about the planned activities on the golf course. First, Countyline Fence started installing the new fence on Steel Road this morning. The Assistant Superintendents are focusing on mowing, rolling and sand topdressing the 18th green. The Greenkeepers are still working to clean up the leaves. We also plan to trench in new drainage for the 1st fairway. I will post some updated pictures later. Enjoy the great weather!
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.
