Fall is a very busy time of year on the golf course. The cool nights and low humidity bring some of the best conditions of the season. The grounds crew will be busy over the next few months preparing things for next season. Fescue areas are being cut down and sprayed, most of the playing surfaces will be aerated and fertilized before winter ( greens will not be touched until late november ), bunkers will be edged back, sod repairs will be made to traffic areas and the irrigation system will be reviewed and repaired for next year. We hope you enjoy these final months of the golf season, and please feel free to contact me with any questions or concerns. Fall is just around the corner, and the cooler nights and shorter days have quickened the recovery from the aeration two weeks ago. The results have been as expected and the staff is already moving forward with preparations for the upcoming Invitational.
In the coming weeks, the playing surfaces will be conditioned with extra mowing, rolling, grooming and adjusted chemical inputs. We will also be spending extra time trimming around the course, adjusting the distribution of sand in the bunkers, and freshly filling all the divots. |
