Weekly Update

On Tuesday we received about .5" of rain. It was a good slow and steady rain and didn't cause too many washouts in the bunkers or make the course conditions very wet for a long period of time. Here is an update of what has been going on this week. We have been having a great week and have been getting a lot of the planned items finished. My staff was able to get another 8 holes solid tined and we only have four more to do on Friday. This is a monthly practice and is very beneficial in helping the greens breathe, water movement, and root development. We are starting on our second time of mowing the rough, tee banks, and green banks. We should be able to get over these areas twice this week without any major setbacks. The bridges on holes #4 and between #7 & #8 were stained this morning. We will hopefully get the other bridges on the back nine finished either Friday or beginning of next week. Native grass spraying is continuing and we are currently working on the last of the remaining holes. I hope to have holes #2, 3, 4, and 5 finished by Friday. That should leave a few remaining holes on the back nine left and maybe some isolated areas on some other holes that we will come back through and touch up as we see them. I will try and get some photos of the finished product on the bridges put up sometime today. Enjoy the beautiful weather and I will see you all soon.
