2013 recap....

2013 was a great year for growing grass here at River Oaks Golf Club but was a lackluster year for the golf economy. With 60 plus days lost to insistent rainfall including 4th of July weekend. We experienced a devastating loss of revenue which impacted our turf management practices in the late summer, fall and winter.


 We were able to keep all the nutrient inputs to a minimum without sacrificing course conditions. We choose to use a very cost effective organic fertilizer for our bulk course application. We also were able to limit the wetting agent usage do to the sufficient rain fall we were receiving during the mid summer months.



With the installation of the fans on #7 & #9, the greens were able to have the some of the best turf I have witnessed on those holes in years. We will look at installing fans on #6 green in 2014.
