Upcoming Golf Course Maintenance Schedule Set


 Upcoming Golf Course Maintenance Schedule Set

It's that time of year when we need to start working on agronomic practices before the ground freezes and the golf course is put to bed for the winter.  That said, here are a few dates to keep in mind as you plan your fall golf schedule at the Club.

Tuesday, October 22nd: Tee aerification using 3/4" hollow tines.  Tee aeration is not a major deal for several reasons.  We will be withholding topdressing sand until after we close the golf course for the winter.

Wednesday October 30- Friday November 1st: Approach aerification using 3/4" hollow tines.  Sand will be withheld until after we close the golf course for the winter.  It is important that we get this completed prior to DryJect.  This is an easy task working around play on these three days.

Monday and Tuesday November 4th & 5th: We'll be bringing in our DryJect contractor to aerate the greens 2 directions and our approaches 1 direction. This is one of the most important programs of the year and it must be done before the greens freeze.  

We will be scheduling a croquet lawn aeration using 5/8" hollow tines sometime in late October or early November.  I will report those dates to you when they are finalized.  All the dates above are subject to change depending on the weather.  Thank you for your support!
