Course Update

Saturday – Status Green Starting Greens getting  set up and blowing leafs away and holes trimmed Daily tasks and set up Leafs being blown on fairways And a bit of fertilizer going out before the rain

Tuesday – Status Green, carry if able. Long overdue trimm on the Green’s. Same story for the Approaches. Tractor Blower out here making easy work of the pesky leaves.
