The snow at the beginning of the week was unfortunate since we had not finished treating some tee's and all the back fairways. By Tuesday snow had settled to about 2.5" . With only a couple inches and the possibility of rain and I made the choice to remove all the snow from the greens to lessen the chance of ice forming.
It took 2 days and four 9 h.p. track snow blowers to expose all the greens.
Traditionally, the snow before Halloween will melt but I choose not to take that risk and we began to plough those fairways that had not been sprayed yet. We started on the flat, smooth and firm fairways first and by Friday we were done removing a bulk of the snow from those areas we needed to treat.
The warm temperatures and rain melted the remaining snow on Saturday and we began to treat those area we missed on Saturday and Sunday.
