Best golf weather of the year.

The weather over the past few weeks has been outstanding.  I have heard nothing but positive comments regarding the condition of the course and many have said the course has never looked better, I would agree.  The eradication of the Bermuda grass has been very successful and we will continue with it next year.  We are currently over-seeding additional areas of the course where the Bermuda has gone dormant for the winter.  This has been a great fall for seed germination and the weather looks like it will continue to cooperate later into the month.  Areas that earlier in the year were up to 70% Bermuda grass are now up to 90% Ryegrass and will continue to fill in over the winter months.  The tees have fully recovered and we will continue to make improvements to them through the winter and next spring.
View from #1 tee, the new Burning Bushes look great this fall.
#7 tee, less than one year old and it looks awesome.
#2 tee gets punched with 1/4" tines again using our Procore 648.  This helps keep the water moving.
#9 tee looks great, what a view.
#18 fairway, this area used to be approx. 60% Bermuda grass and is currently 90% Ryegrass.
View from #3, looks great. 

#12 tee enlarged to original size.
