This week's forecast is calling for even higher temperatures with highs reaching into the mid 80s almost everyday. There is a slight chance of a shower tomorrow, followed by a 50% chance through the rest of the week; much light last week. Night temperatures will also remain very high, barely dropping below 70*. Although there was a very similar forecast last week, we have yet to receive any measurable amount of rain on the course. The staff is doing a great job keeping up with it and there is a great amount of manpower required to keep the course green!
On the golf course this week we will be busy handwatering once again. With even higher temperatures and a slight breeze over the past few days things have become quite dry on the course. Each afternoon we have 3-4 staff members handwatering areas on the golf course. This allows us to place water exactly where it is required much more efficiently. Tuesday of this week, we will be spraying tees and fairways with a foliar fungicide and fertilizer combination. Finally, this week we will be preparing for the couples member guest tournament that begins on Thursday. Please continue to check back with us through the week for updates!
