Mondays are now our favorite day of the week!  Well it still is Monday but oh what a difference.  We are so much more productive and our labor is maximized to complete tasks that normally take much longer.  Thank you!  Yesterday we core aerated all the tees, sprayed greens, repaired divots on the front nine, aerified and seeded the driving range fairway and worked on the 15th tee beds.  Whew!  That is a weeks worth in a day.

 
Francisco core aerifying the 10th tee.
 
 
Luis seeding the driving range fairway after core aeration and dragging the cores.  About 600 pounds of perennial ryegrass was used.
 
 
The seed bed.
 
 
The crew working on the beds at 15 tee before they begin cleaning the tees.  Richard is watering the greens nursery in the foreground.
 
 
This will keep the weeds out.
 
 
Bent sod on the 18th fairway with bermudagrass poking through (the small dark spots).
 
 
A closer look.  Bermudagrass infested areas have been extensively seeded but germination is slow.  Soil temperatures are still at 50 degrees.
 
 
Divot repairs on the front nine fairways.  The guys used more than twice the amount of sand than the previous week meaning we have golfers!
 
 
Topdressing tees on Tuesday morning.
 
 
Our spring tulips have been exceptional- summer annuals are next.
