We missed the majority of the rain and storms this past week. It looks like some lingering showers through Tuesday with seasonal temperatures expected. Hopefully, we can get the course to dry out.
We plan to work on bunkers this week. The process includes detailing the bunker surrounds, checking the depth of the sand in the bunker and moving or adding sand where necessary, cutting a crisp edge and raking them. A couple of things to think about when you are in the bunkers. First, the rakes are to be put outside of the bunkers. Secondly, try not to climb out of the bunkers on the steep face. This causes the sod on the bunker face to erode and leave the face of the bunker unplayable. Please try to enter and exit the bunkers from the flat side.
Other things on the agenda for the week include getting the flowers planted around the clubhouse, moving the driving range set-up to the bottom tee, slit seeding and topdressing the top tee so it is ready for fall and keeping up with the daily maintenance to the course.
Hope to see you on the course,
Tom
