Reminder

Greens aerification will be April 7th.  We are using a 3/8's coring tine so the holes will be slightly larger than your average ink pin.  Hopefully with good weather the holes will heal in within a week and there will be no evidence of the aerification after two weeks.  This has been one of the roughest winters on record between cold temps, wet days, and the fluctuation of temperatures all winter so getting a quality aerification in early will be very important this year.

Spring Prep

Spring is upon us and grass is greening up on the golf course.  To help things green up we've started spiking and aerifying the course.  The fairways have already been spiked and roughs are currently under way.  Tees will be core aerified in the coming weeks and greens will be aerified on April 7th.  Aerification and spiking help removed old dead growth and make room for new growth for the upcoming season.
