This time of year means an increase in golf and with that an increase in golfers and cart traffic throughout the course.   While the maintenance staff strives at keeping the course in great condition, we do need your help in repairing your ballmarks plus one more, replace and/or sand your divot and please follow the 90 degree cart rule when enforced.  We have now placed black poles in the fairways as an additional cart rule.  Once you arrive to these poles you are to advance the cart directly to the cart path.  Carts are not to be taken in the rough or the fairway beyond these poles. 

To aid in recovery of divots at the chipping fairway,

 we will be closing areas throughout the season.







While you see the the professionals on TV making

this type of practice divot, you should not do this

style on bentgrass practice areas.  Majority of practice areas

are warm season turf and can recover from this type of divot,

but the bentgrass can't.  The picture below is a better

representation of how a divot should be taken.  There should be

turf surrounding the entire divot.  This allows the bentgrass to creep

into the center for a faster recovery.



#1 tee, pictured below, has been seeded once again.

We have had trouble with this tee since day 1.  The picture

was taken at 9:30 am and was still shaded till almost

10:30am.  The tree behind the tee may need some heavy

pruning to allow more sunlight.
