Heavy Rolling Greens

Today, we have frost again ... please check with the pro shop before entering the golf course.

Trying the new rakes this morning ... so far they are not working on the wet sand ... they worked fine on dry, but not wet.  It appears that this model of rake thanks to the high organic matter content and fines ends up "smearing" the wet sand that we have in the morning caused by the irrigation at night.  We still will continue the test this morning but be aware the results may be less than desired.  Other styles of rakes are coming in soon to test.

We were going to heavy roll the greens today but even after recent repair the Greens Iron roller is having difficultly working correctly.  We may have to use the light roller instead.
