 # 7 Green after a late season aerification.

 We reseeded and fertilized this green hopefully to thicken up this green in the spring. With the two fans we installed plus all the seed and babysitting. We should be in good shape for next summer.

 Pre-emerge going out. We used Princep Simazine to control Poa Annua and some winter annuals. This is a great product for poa and is very cost effective

 You can see the blue hue in the distant fairway this is the tracker so we know what has been sprayed and what has not.
You can see its not a big difference but enough to locate your sprayed areas.

November Update......

Leaf season is upon us. We are making great strides in leaf control. We have had the blowers going and are even starting to burn the leaves that have been collecting in the woods in between holes.


We have also had a few frost delays, but today we had the heaviest frost so far with temperatures at 34 degrees.



The course is in overall great shape with the greens rolling fast and true. The few thin turf spots on the edges of the greens are healing up well. We will be continuing with the brush clean up and tree removal around the course over the next couple of weeks. We have already cleared #8, 10, 15, 18 hillsides and behind #7 green.
