Short Game Tee

The short game tee will remain closed for 2-3 weeks for turf recovery. Extra fertilizer and the lack of traffic will help this area tremendously. This tee is very popular and takes a beating.

Aerification 2013 Update (4)

It has been 5 weeks and 3 days since the first hole was punched in the greens. We have reached the point where all holes are filled and we can now focus on playability. With each passing day greens are becoming smoother and speed is increasing. We will continue to verticut and topdress on a regular basis throughout the rest of the growing season. I would like to thank you for your patience during this time. Below are a couple pics from the practice green.

Aerification 2013 update (3)

Greens: Holes 12 -18 were aerifyed and topdressed on Monday, fertilized on Wednesday and will be topdressed over the weekend to top off remaining holes. Keep in mind that it will take several more weeks before they return to normal.

Fairways: Holes 9-18 were aerified, verticut and scalped. It should take a couple more weeks before the fwys are back to normal.

Tees: Holes 1-18 were verticut and scalped. It should take 10-14 days before they return to normal. Our intentions were to aerify them but due to the frequent rains we were unable to. This will be completed over the next several weeks.

Of the 17 days we have been closed, it has rained on 7 of those for a total of 8.55". To put that into perspective, June and July's average combined is 8.80".
