February Update

There is still any where from 16 to 20" of snow out on the course but I'm starting to think about Spring. Last week I dug down and pulled some plugs from known bad spots on greens with a history of sometimes being funky at the start of the year. One week later and things seem OK. I'm a little leery to suggest everything is "peachy" but I am optimistic.

Back #9 Green

Same plug 10 days later

I've sampled three other greens (6,8, and 13) and they look pretty similar to the above pictures.

What's the Point?

I have been giving some thought as to how I could inform more of the membership about the activities occuring at the golf course throughout the whole calendar year. The plan is to try to write a weekly update. Updates may be more frequent if time and events dictate. They may be also less frequent if not much is going on. I will try keep it short and to the point and incorporate pictures to spice up the posts.

This is meant more as a vehicle for me to inform the membership. If you have information or questions please contact me in person as I won't respond to comments or emails since I would like to deal with members in person only.
