We will be topdressing greens on Thursday, October 1st. We are dealing with some very wet and stormy weather right now, so it is imperative that we get the sand down before the next rain. The forecast is for rather heavy rain on Friday. With the moisture in the ground right now, potentially we could be saturated again for the weekend. These fall storms are good times for us to make note of areas that require drainage work or repair.
The past few days we have been able to make great strides on the bunker project on #17. All three of the new bunkers have been shaped and drained. Tuesday morning Ian Andrew our consulting golf course architect, will be painting the final contours in the bunkers. We will then install the bunker boards and back fill with topsoil to the new edges. Once the edges are established we will add the new sand and await sod. The rain and snow that we recieved over the last couple of days has had little effect on the rough shaping process. We are hoping for some drier days to complete the fine tuning and sod prepping.
