Hey Owen. Let me ask you a question real quick

I get tons of questions every day/week about things we are doing.  I think if one person is asking the question there must be at least one more member that has pondered the same question.  For that reason, I’ll start adding a “Hey Owen.  Let me ask you a question real quick” section.


Did we use the big tines or little tines during this aerification?
we used what would be considered a larger tine. It is about 5/8" in diameter. This is the same tine we have used each Spring and Fall for the last several years. We have had great success in getting the holes filled back in quickly and the larger size provides a greater benefit to the subsurface of the green.

Can we do something to dress up the area on #18 cart path near the green where the golfers all enter and exit the green from the cart path?
Yes we can. We will be adding flat stone here similar to many other areas on the golf course.

The new sand looks great but how long will it take to become compacted?

With a few heavy rains and our crew continuing to compact the sand mechanically they will soon be compacted pretty well.
