Weekend Update

After over 3 inches of rain fell on the golf course earlier this week the hummidty is gone and it feels like Septemeber, can you see me smiling? These high 50 degree nighttime temperatures are the best fertilizer anyone can ask for especially in July. This week is traditionally the hottest week of the year in our area and boy is it a change from this week last year when we had 7 days over 95 coupled with night time temperatures in the low 80's. Taking advantage of this short weather break we lightly groomed the greens and approaches cleaning up some of the long leaf blades and put out a dry mow in the afternoon. The greens are still soft from the rain but they will improve as we go through the weekend. The 8 inch kids cup has been installed on the practice green so bring up the kids for a little putting competition, a great family activity after dinner on a Friday or Saturday evening. I really hope everyone can come out and enjoy the golf course this weekend but if you show up early in the morning you might need a light jacket, again do you see me smiling. See you on the course.
