The rainfall and warmer temperatures have definitely added some challenges. The grass seems to have grown inches over night during the last couple weeks. The maintenance crew has been working hard to keep the rough mowed, and free of clumping grass (
photo #4 rough). The fairways and greens will be coming out of regulation, which means there will be more growth through the day. Moisture and growth can decrease the distance of a tee shot that lands on the fairway. Also as grass wants to aggressively grow on our greens, "green speed" is negatively effected. We will be working hard at keeping the greens consistent and maintaining at our Statement of Standards.
