First Greens Mowing


Today we mowed the greens for the first time of the 2014 season and cut fresh cups for the second time. This past weekend we had our first golfers of the season; it was nice to see several members out enjoying the sunshine and warmer temperatures finally. 


We are very pleased with the health of the greens at this point and it's nice to see them all standing at attention. This closeup picture above shows the tight, healthy, prostrate growth of the turfgrass plants, with a light layer of topdressing sand still visible on the surface. 


It's refreshing to get back out on the course and cut some grass after a long winter of record snowfall and persistent extreme temperatures. Spring has finally sprung at the club!
