 Its a rainy Monday.  Believe it or not but this is beneficial rain.  When was the last time that I said that?  We have extensively overseeded the golf course and this rain will help the new seedlings.  Bermudagrass rough areas were seeded especially hard.  Herbicides will be applied to these areas to help suppress the bermudagrass before entering full dormancy and will begin again in the spring.



Fescue seedlings emerging.


Bentgrass filling in in the tenth walkway.  After a difficult summer you have to marvel how fast the bent recovers.


Josh overseeding the driving range fairway with perennial rye a second time.  Weather did not cooperate the first time.


There is still too much of this occurring.  Two unrepaired divots near the 16th green aimed at 2 green.  Practice swing and then the real shot I guess.


 A fresh unrepaired ball mark.  At least this is easy to fix but unacceptable nonetheless.


This is much worse.  It certainly doesn't take much time to fix a ball mark this way but it will take weeks to recover.  We are spending more time fixing damage like this.  Please help by repairing them properly.


Fall color in the 8th creek.  Leaves are turning late this year.


Chess or checkers?  Bentgrass in its prime.
