Faliure to update Blog......


I want to apologize for not keeping the Blog updated on a regular basis. The summer is a crazy time for a Superintendent and I don't find myself with a lot of time in front of the computer. I am attaching a few pictures below of some of the things the maintenance department has been working on. Enjoy!!!




We built a "Ball Drop Area" on Hole  #11 for the ladies out of Zeon Zoysia. So now you will have a level area and the same turf conditions as the tee boxes.


 Aerification started August 27th. We used 3/4 inch tines on a 2x1.5x4.25 spacing/depth. I am amazed at how quickly they are healing within 9 days we have 60-70% closure.


 The Driving Range Tees were over seeded with P. Rye grass @ 900 lbs/A. This should produce a great turf stand and look for winter play.
 Medalist Golf is on property doing some renovation work on holes #1 and driving range. Hole #1 had a 36 inch drainage line collapse.
 Last year the 3 pines near the Driving Range tee were struck by lighting. After they were removed the azalea's began to suffer. In this area we also had a drainage issue which needed work, since Medalist was already working on hole #1 they are making the repair up top for materials. I believe you will enjoy the new look when it is finished.
