This Sunday at 4pm we will begin our heavy topdressing and solid tine aerification on greens (no cores). We are going to start on the 1st and work our way through to the 18th. In the past two years we were able to get the front 9 finished on the Sunday evening shift. The remaining holes will be done on Monday. With good weather and cooperative equipment we should be able to complete the same amount of acreage this year. During this process the pins will be placed in the approaches, again until the green is completed. We are scheduled to aerify tees on Tuesday, the tees will be core aerified, matted, blown and cleaned up in 1 day. We will then follow up on Wednesday with a heavy topdressing on tees. As always these tasks are weather dependent/permitting.
With the great weather that we have had the last two days, we were able to get the tees shaped and all of the tee mix out to the tees. In this picture here, Derek Vergeer (our contractor) is finish grading #2 Tee to be ready for sod. Unfortunately the forecast is for rain the next couple of days and could hold us up for a bit. We are doing out best to complete these projects in a timely manner, of course with this blog we will keep you updated.
