Aerfication finished/upcoming maintenance

Aerification is finally finished with success. I was very pleased with the results from it. I would like to remind everyone that on May 3rd, we will be DryJecting the greens. This process allows us to push sand deeper into the soil than what aerification does. Aerification gets us about 2-2.5" down while the DryJect system goes down as far as 6". With these two maintenance practices, we have greatly improved our soil in the top 5-6" in the past 3 years. This process will only take a day and you will be able to play on the greens that day. We will start off by closing the front side, just to give us a good start with no interuptions and by 12:00-1:00, it will open back up. At that time we will close the back nine until we are finished. If the process goes well the front could be opened sooner. But the season is upon us and things are starting to warm up, the grass is growing and greening up, and the golfers are coming out. I'm happy to see everyone back out enjoying the weather and the course. We look forward to seeing you out there.
