Roll? Hmmm....maybe?

As the next heat wave comes upon us, we are taking many pro-active steps to protect the turf. As many readers of this blog know, I have a steadfast rule that when we have temperatures in the lower and mid-90 degrees or above, we stop rolling greens until it cools down. For some reason, the greens start to "thin out" when we roll them  in high temperatures. That being said, this coming Thursday's forecast calls for a day where temperatures might drop back below our threshold. If so, we roll on Thursday. Thanks for your understanding regarding this matter!

Restoration Update

Today marks the beginning of mobilization of equipment on # 8 for the upcoming restoration. Our golf course contractor is Total Turf and with golf course architect Brian Schneider from Renaissance Golf, they will be teaming up to open a new chapter in Llanerch's storied history. You can also follow the progress on Twitter @BrendanJByrne01.
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.
