Monday Greens Venting

 
As advertised, the putting greens are being vented today and sand topdressed.  We actually apply the sand 1st, so the weight of the machine doesn't track on softer greens, a temporary condition created by aeration.  Within a few days, you won't be able to tell we did anything.  As for the turf, the benefits in regards to root health, are long lasting.  It is necessary to perform this type of maintenance in order to have good quality putting greens, season long. 
 
On another note, the morning temperature today at Highlands CC was 44*F!
