This week

We have started to aerate tees this week to continue our push for a better playing surface on the tees box tops.  We are going to push hard on getting the Bermuda to close in laterally and heal from the small amount of winter kill and the large amount of spring dead spot we suffered coming out of winter.  We also starting spraying a large about of herbicide on the back nine fairways and rough to get them clean from the mass amount of weeds that have emerged from this moist spring.  You will see a slight discoloration but the turf will bounce back it's not a big deal. It all depends on where your from but some people call Bermuda "Wire Grass."  If it is not your desired turf its a weed.  It's a tough weed to kill!  But if you want it it's called "Bermuda Grass."  In short that's why the herbicide discolored the turf.  We will continue to get out when we can watching the heat, humidity, and rain storms closely. Other than that is has been a normal last couple weeks with mowing and typical golf course maintenance.  Hope you get a chance to get out soon the place is shaping up nicely day by day.  Kevin


Just a little humor on a hot nasty day!
