The course has really "greened up" from the over 2.2 inches of rain we received this week! The rough is growing like....rough in May...thick and dense. We are putting as much effort as possible to keep the rough at a manageable playing height. We just sodded the surround of the new 13th tee. We plan to finish it by Tuesday of next week. I am hoping to open it by no later than the third week of June. I want to thank everyone for fixing ball marks and divots. Every little bit of help in this department really improves the quality of the course.
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.
