If these pictures don't make you want to play, you don't like golf!!

Happy Fourth of July!

It finally feels like summer around here.  Fairways are looking awesome, roughs have filled in and greens are still doing great.  This week we ran the verticutters Monday on all of the fairways.  We did this to promote lateral growth as well as new growth in an effort to have denser, finer leafed grass. Monday we also ran the aerator on the greens.  We used solid tines to poke a 1/4'” hole in the turf so we can get some air down into the root zone.  We will continue this process through the summer months to keep the greens healthy.  

This week we also worked on the bunkers on 8 and 17 by adding new sand to the greenside bunkers.  Again, this is a short term fix until we have a chance to address the problem with the liners coming up.  All in all the course looks great and I am finally starting to be pleased with the playing conditions.  Happy Fourth of July!!!
