Fall Aerification

It's that time of year to aerify and sand the golf course again.  The fairways have already been aerified and sanded.  The maintenance team is currently completing the greens, followed by the tees and approaches over the next couple of days.

The fairways are aerified with a 3/4" tine, while the remaining areas receive a 5/8" tine.  Cores are pulled and removed on all areas and then the holes are filled with sand.

Here are a few photos of the aerification and sanding process...

Tree Care

The trees on the golf course have been neglected over the years.  Many of them have large amounts of dead material in the canopy, as well as hang very low to the ground.
Our goal is to visually make the trees and the golf course more appealing, while improving the playability of the course.

The entire month of September we are working on tree care with a rented high lift. We will not finish the entire course in this time, but plan to continue this process annually.
