Greening Up

By orchardsgolf

It’s hard to believe that it’s only April 22.  As we get warmer days, warmer nights, and nice April showers the course seems to make huge strides each and every day.

The sodded greens are looking great, and we’ve already been able to mow them each twice!  Roots are taking hold and the sod is looking very healthy.  There’s still some unevenness in the sod, so as the days and weeks go by we will begin to topdress and maintain the sodded greens more aggressively.  We ask your patience as we perform these tasks, as it’s these sort of maintenance techniques that will get these greens towards optimal conditions.  Enjoy a few pictures of the first two mowings:

I’ll post more pictures as the days go by.  We hope all of you are enjoying the course.

See you out there,

The Keepers
