Christmas & Tree Trimming

Merry Christmas to Everyone!!

The tree trimming has been completed around the golf course and just after the wind storm on Wednesday we have been picking up little branches that fall out after the the trimming process.

Last weekend we lost about half a foot of green speed due to the flush of growth from the recent rains and the slightly warmer weather. To combat this loss of speed we double rolled the greens first with a light roller and then with a heavier rollers. This seems to have gotten the speed back to normal. In January we will be regularly topdressing the greens which will further speed up the greens.

Over these holidays the crew will be getting the holidays off, however, I will be in on the mornings to ensure that there is no frost to contend with. If you do not see me at the first tee all is well and go ahead and play to your heart's content. The crew also wanted to extent their thanks for everyone who contributed to the Christmas bonus. It was much needed for many and they thank you.
