The practice areas are all open now that the grass is growing and has a chance to recover.  We have some suggestions on the best method to practice and take care of the turf. 

The following repairs apply to the chipping fairway.  This picture illustrates what not to do when practicing.  This area was played on last fall and still hasn't recovered.  Try and avoid wearing out large areas like this.  Instead take individual divots or follow a narrow line as shown below.

The turf can heal much faster taking divots this way.

Another look with aggressive lateral growth filling the divot.  This type of practice applies only to the chipping fairway.  The driving range tee can be divoted to the max as the bermudagrass is able to recover much faster because of it's extensive root system and aggressive growth habit.  Have at it!

We recently completed landscaping at the 1st tee.  These are carpet roses and they should bloom all summer and into the fall.
