Despite the cool, sometimes cloudy, conditions over the past few days, the agronomy staff worked diligently to complete the March greens aeration on schedule. Over the years, I've detailed the core aeration process on this blog, so I won't go into too much detail but the following pictures should shed some light on a few of the major steps required. As with all core aerations, the sand-filled holes will be evident for about 7-10 days before they completely heal in. During this time, the agronomy staff will be mowing and rolling the greens to maintain the highest quality putting surfaces possible. We thank you for your patience and understanding during this time. If you have any further questions, feel free to contact me.

After sand is incorporated into holes, excess sand is blown off greens
