Venting

Today we vented all 19 greens.  The timing is perfect after the last two weeks of heavy rain, including four inches over the last week. By venting the greens we allow the roots to breath and promote drainage in soil that is not only heavily moistened by has been for days.

This will be a monthly occurrence and will not affect play. The tines used are intentionally small and leave little trace. Know that this is a practice done to ensure your greens stay as healthy and playable as possible.

See you on the course!
