Spring is in the air!!

It seems that spring temperatures have arrived early.  Yesterday, March 6th, it hit 69 degrees!  We went from a golf course covered in snow to a sloppy, brown covered, field of turf.  While the weather pattern looks promising, we do need to remember that it is still early March and the turf is not capable of recovering to daily play yet.  We need to dry out and get some actively growing turfgrass so the ballmarks will heal and the divots will fill in.  I look for an earlier opening than normal if the weather cooperates.  We will try to get you on the range earlier so you can get out and smooth that swing.  The greens came through winter in great shape.  We plan on pulling a few covers at the end of this week on the south facing greens and pull the rest of the covers early next week.  They will take some time to dry out before we can mow them and set them up for daily play.  Before you know it, we will be looking at this.
