With the heat and humidity, the cool season grasses on the south course is starting to burn out.  This is typical with overseeding. The bermudagrass dies due to high traffic areas / compacted soils as well as too much competition from the cool season grasses. The result is bare soil or lack of turf density.   Over the next month, we will be fertilizing and sodding these weak areas to get them to fill in as quick as possible.  For those members who have been here for a number of years, most are probably  familiar with this transition period although it's never very encouraging to see bare areas around the course.

     Over the next week we will be addressing the overgrowth around the tee boxes to improve line of sight to the fairways. We completed #18 south in front of the white tees on Friday and most of the area in front of #7 south.  From there we will addressing  #1 north, 5 and 15 south..

     Still waiting on our pump-station on the north course.  Most of the components for the pump-station has already been manufactured. The main hold up is the transformer upgrades so we can power the additional pumps to help improve water distribution.
