Aerification and change of plans

We are experiencing some technical difficulties with the pump station on the Red and White golf courses and we are unable to irrigate the golf course manually.  We have a company coming out Monday to resolve the issue.

Without water, we are hesitant to aerify the white course on Monday.  Therefore, we will start aerification off the blue nine Monday morning.  If all goes well, we will proceed to aerify the Red nine on Tuesday and the White nine on Wednesday.

What a storm

Our staff did a knockout job getting the course ready for the Bluebonnet Interclub tournament that we hosted on Thursday morning.  Thanks to the members and the Proshop staff, we were able to close the course for most of the day, which gave us the opportunity to remove debris without interruption.  After 12 hours and several loads of debris, we had the course cleared and ready for play.  In our efforts to clear the course we have fallen behind on our routine mowing schedule.  The rough has yet to be cut and fairways have only been mowed once this week.   We will try to complete our second cut on fairways but the rough will not be cut until Monday of next week.  

Thanks for your cooperation
