On The Course July 29th

Great Morning On The Course!

 We are mowing and rolling greens this morning. The bunkers are being hand raked and the course is starting to dry out. We still have some wet spots in some fairways and we will be 90 Degree rule today. We are hosting the Champs swim meet at the Club today so the parking lot will be busy. We have roped off some areas where we do not want cars pulling on to the turf areas. The swim meet finishes up on Saturday and the ropes will be pulled on Sunday.

Good luck to JD today as he will be announcing players on 18 late this afternoon. The course received some rain last night and might make scoring a little better today. Excited to see Jd represent Medina on a national stage!

We are mowing and rolling greens this morning. We received almost an inch of rain yesterday and we will be cart path only most of today. There is a chance of rain later today but it looks like the weekend is shaping up to be very nice. We are mowing fairways and the crew will be working on bunkers later this morning. We have a few bunkers that are washed out and will need some sand moved around. Kurt was working on some drainage on 14 near the comfort station the past couple of days. The crew will start to work on the walk path to the comfort station on 14 now that the drainage is installed. We have to haul in some topsoil to the area and will be working on that as the weather allows.

We have been having snake issues in one of irrigation controllers. This guy was not happy to find the sticky trap!

We are rolling greens this morning before the hot and humid heat wave starts. Kurt and Nick will be hand watering and checking irrigation heads this morning. Junior golf off the Back nine followed by some regular play before the 1pm Guest Day Shotgun. We are starting all golf off #10 today ending with Ladies League on the back night late this afternoon. The crew is working on mowing rough, collars, approaches and raking bunkers.

We are seeing more Japanese Beetles this year than we have ever seen.
