On The Course May 11th



Windy conditions overnight have dried the course out very well. We have some spotty showers fore casted for later today but the weekend is looking to be really good. Today we are mowing and rolling greens. Carlos and Roque are mowing collars and approaches and Dick is triplexing approaches. Jason worked on a couple irrigation issues on #12 yesterday and will be fixing the small leak on #14 approach that appeared yesterday morning. I played the front nine yesterday afternoon with Mr. Turnquist and was very surprised by the fresh ball marks left on most of the greens. We discussed a few different options for getting everyone to fix all of the ball marks on the green.

We will be working on the Executive course greens again this morning getting our aerification equipment set up and ready for Monday. Troy will have a crew out finish grading the new fairway on Executive Course #1. We are looking to seed this area next week. Next week we will be really busy with aerification and with the fore casted weather we should be able to finish a few of the projects we have stalled on with all of the rain over the past couple of weeks. Once we are finished with greens aerification we will be moving on to tees and fairways. Our plan right now is to solid tine some of the fairways to help work in some topdressing sand.
