Green speed

With two weeks of hot, humid weather under our belt, the greens are showing slight signs of stress.  In an effort to be proactive and protect them from future damage, we have limited our aggressive practices that typically increase green speed.  

We switched to less aggressive mowers, eliminated growth regulators from our program, we are limiting roller use and increasing fertility.  This combination will typically cause growth, and ultimately plant resistance as the ball travels to the hole location.

With cooler temperatures like today, the turf will recover sooner than later, allowing us to ramp up our practices for future tournaments such as the Club Championship and Member/Member.

We appreciate your patience!
