On March 1st it was 72 degrees and we were mowing the 9th green. Today, its 19 degrees in the morning with 3 inches of snow with a coating of ice. The forecast really only seems to warm up after Sunday. I am hoping that most of the snow is gone by late next week. We will keep you and the Golf Shop updated.
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.
