As you can see from the above photo the rough to right of #4 White Fairway has been taken over with common bermudagrass and undesirable weeds. These weeds have become too difficult to control with traditional chemical methods and a complete overhaul was necessary. This week's project was to renovate the rough on #4. The ground current cover really compromised not only the aesthetics but the playability of the hole. It should be playable by Thanksgiving. I know those reading this blog don't hit the ball in the rough, but tell your friends it's going to be great!
The sod is roped off and should be played as "ground under repair" , please keep off the grass until it's ready.

The BEST sod laying crew in the world. |
