ISTRC Testing

We have received the results from the ISTRC testing that we completed on the 6th green back in September before we aerated the greens. This test is a benchmark that shows us what is going on in the soil including infiltration rate, air porosity, bulk density, organic content amongst others that shows us how the greens need to be cultivated in the future as well as showing the progress that we are making with the health of the greens. The following is part of the report that show how the 6th green compares to a properly functioning USGA green. We are very far from where we need to be but this report will help determine the agronomic path that will create healthy greens.
