One More Day

Tomorrow is the big day ... the course will open.

We are still working quite hard on the golf course to get every thing ready for the opening and looking down at the list of things that have to get done still is always so daunting.  Since the weather is cooling down so much in the upcoming week we decided to change a couple things up and fertilize the golf course today to maximize it's effect on the ryegrass.  With all of the hot weather in Oct. the bermudagrass blossomed more than we like, thus to combat it's "yellowing" effect that will come in late Nov. or Dec., we are fertilizing it now ... just love changes but that is the nature of natual systems.

We may not get the entire list done that I would like but we will focus of the keys items to have the golf course ready.  I should note that while we are still repairing some of the back nine greens the height of cut will be higher than our usual, thus slower green speeds. 

Over the upcoming weeks we will bring everything back into place.  We are currently working on raising our staffing levels back to workable levels and hopefully we will be there soon.  Please bare with us during these first couple of weeks and you will be pleased where we are going.  And remember that this is the first year that we had less than 30 days to open thus our window for getting things done was greatly shortened.  Not to mention the disease issues that plagued the Valley & us this year.
