Golf Course Happenings

I'm extremely pleased with the recovery the greens have made from last week's aerification.  As you can see from the picture below, there are hardly any visible holes.  The greens have healed in remarkably fast and are rolling smooth.

This morning, we aerified tees.  Everything went well.

Another item on the agenda today was slicing fairways.  This was good to complete since we have had great success with bentgrass creeping into and coming up through the slices.

A new methodology we tried last week, is proving to be successful in promoting bentgrass germination.  In the picture below you can see all of the new seedlings growing on #11 fairway.  We will be going around this week continuing our overseeding efforts in weak turf areas on fairways.

The level of the pond on #5 is low and we're investigating it.  I will keep you updated as more information becomes available.
