It's hard to believe, with this current heat wave, but fall aeration on greens is just around the corner. On Tuesday September 2nd, the grounds staff will begin aerating the front nine greens. This will allow play to continue on the back nine. On Wednesday September 3rd, the front nine will be back open and ready for play while the back nine greens are aerated. The practice greens will aerated on Wednesday morning.
Aeration is a key practice performed each spring and fall that promotes improved soil drainage, oxygen content, and root density. For more information about the process and how it is performed, stay tuned. Once the process is complete, I will post pictures that help explain how it is done.
