Irrigation

In today's post, the blog has a picture of the staff trenching #11 rough to add irrigation. This trenching skid-loader cuts roughly 18 inches deep into the ground. We then connect PVC pipe to the existing water service. After connecting communication wire and the actual irrigation sprinkler, all we need to do is add water into the pipe. We will then fill the trench and sod and seed the area. We plan to turn on the water for the entire irrigation system in about 2 weeks.

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.
