Topdress

We had grand plans to spread as much sand as possible yesterday but Mother Nature had other plans for us! We had over 1.5 inches of rain on Monday that really set us back from topdressing. Instead we spent yesterday and today reworking the sand in the bunkers that was moved by the heavy rains. Today, the sun came out and we started to spread sand. All the greens were verticut and lightly topdressed. We are also todpressing the approaches. This helps in provide a smoother surface and assists in draining the soil.

Sod, Sod, Sod

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.
