It has been dry and really hot since my last post. Highs have been in the 90's with feels like temps of over 100 degrees for several days now. The upcoming forecast calls for even hotter and drier weather with feels like temps of up to 106".
With the dry weather, we are not catching up on our rain amounts and the lakes are still very low, especially for the middle of June. We have only had 2.78" of rain so far this June, our normal average month-to-date is 9.17".
Even with the dry weather, the course looks like it is loving the hot weather and grass growth is in full swing.
Our Tee Regrassing is still on schedule (thanks to the dry weather) and we should be throwing grass by the end of the month.
We completed the bridges behind 3 green and 15 tee during the past closure and will work on 3 tee and 4 tee bridges next closure.
Here is a quick video of the finishing activities of the 1st summer closure. We look forward to everyone enjoying the "new short course" as we reopened for play yesterday. A lot of mowing and final cleanup plus some fertilizer to keep the healing going.
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!
