After the coldest April since 1985, we went through one of the wettest Mays. With all that behind us, we are focusing on daily play and the Finsterwald Cup. We are really focusing on maintaining the rough. Rest assured that we doing all we can to keep it at reasonable height. We just could use some dry weather and sunny skies!
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.
