Fairway and Rough Aerification

If you haven't already seen, it's that time of year again and we have begun aerification of the roughs and Fairways.  This process will take us the entire week, and we hope the weather holds out.  We completed the red nine this morning and have turned to the blue.  I expect to finish the blue nine sometime tomorrow morning and move our crew over to the white nine.

We are hoping to have all three nines complete before the rain moves on Thursday.  We currently have one tractor on property that is pulling the aerifier.  Once aerification is complete, we will hookup the gang unit to pulverize the plugs in the rough.

This is a once a year practice, so be patient as we will have the course back into condition shortly.

Thanks,
