Glen Eagle Maintenance (10/8/25)

With the change in format for club communication, the blog updates will be Wednesdays instead of Fridays and will go out with the golf communication weekly.

That said, it has only been a few days since my last update so not as much to report but here are the highlights.

Course is looking good in part due to almost 4” of rain that fell on Sunday and Monday. Unfortunately the rain forced us into cart path only (CPO) conditions Tuesday but we needed the rain so hard to complain too much.

Here is a picture of the course on Tuesday and you can see how green the turf is.

The 4 inches of rain helped get the lakes closer to their normal capacity for this time of year and just in time as the weather forecast is calling for drier air and slightly cooler temperatures starting Sunday.

We only have one Monday closure left…where did the time go? So we made this past Monday count by spiking, spraying, topdressing and fertilizing greens.

Our projects are moving along steadily. Raising of irrigation heads around the greens should wrap up this week with drains left to complete next week.

I received a date for the gate installation at Radio Road. It is October 30th. Further out than I would have liked but glad to know we will get that project wrapped up this month.

I look forward to seeing everyone on the course, and as always, if you have any questions, flag me down or shoot me an email. I always enjoy talking turf!
