Golf Course Update

Finally after weeks of dry and windy conditions, we got some rain! The course received over 2.2 inches of rain last Sunday. We are hoping for some more in the near future. In the mean time, we have been redistributing the sand in all the green side bunkers to ensure a more even playing surface. We will continue this work in the fairway bunkers over the next two weeks. Most of the other time has been spent on mowing the ever thickening rough. It is that time of year when the rough goes from thin and uneven to thick and lush. Next week we will trim some trees, topdress greens and groom the fairways.

Golf Course Update (Groundhog Day Version)

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!
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.
