Circle Cutting Fairways

 
The fairway mowers are circle cutting fairways this morning, something we do monthly.  The point is to change up the direction and the turf by cutting it from a variety of angles.  This practice helps reduce grain, or turf that "lays over."  On Wednesday, we will switch the direction of stripes on the fairways for the same reason.  The goal is to have tight, upright growing turf that is easy to get a club head under.
