I created this blog to give the membership an insight to the Field Club maintenance department. We are a 'behind the scenes' operation, so this is intended to fill that void and inform you on what progress is being made on a daily to weekly basis.

Greens Aerification
Monday we completed the daunting task of greens aerification. We used 1/2" core tines and went on 1.5" spacing. That tine size with tight spacing allowed us to remove just under 9% of material which is exactly what we were looking to accomplish. Tuesday afternoon, we rolled (2x) and mowed greens to smooth them out and clean up excess sand on the surface. Over the coming days, we will continue to roll greens which will keep them nice and smooth. If the cool weather forecast holds true, the cool temps will slow down the recovery process, but the greens will be putting true regardless of the temps.
