Course Update









We trenched the back half of #13 green for the root barrier.
Each black dot contains a chemical that emits when contacted by the
roots.  The chemical prevents the root from growing beyond the
barrier.
This is the amount of roots present within the green surround.  Trees
and turf do not go well together!

The finished area prior to seeding...and Gilbert acting like he helped.







 While we had a trencher in house we installed some drainage.  The
picture directly above is at #2 tee boxes where water seemed to always
stand after a large rainfall.  Picture above that is at the miantenance
facility.


We also aerified tees 1, 2, 3 and 7 and will finish the remainder
tomorrow (Thursday). 
We also spiked and seeded greens 1, 2, 5 and 6.  We will finish
the frontside greens tomorrow (Thursday).
BE AWARE:  IRRIGATION ON GREENS WILL BE ON WITHIN THE HOURS
OF 7:00 AM, 10:00 AM, 2:00 PM AND 5:00 PM.
During the seeding process we cannot allow the seed to dry out or it will die.
I apologize for any inconvenience.
