As you can see from this picture, we have begun to aerify greens today. We are using a 1/2 inch sized coring tine. I would characterize it as leaving a medium sized hole. We are adding sand to the greens to fill the holes. The sand helps water movement and speeds up the healing time. We should be reopened for golf by 8:00am on Thursday. Thanks for your patience.
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.
