The signs of fall are everywhere! The leaves are beginning to change color and some are even beginning to fall from the trees. The days are getting shorter and the nights are getting cooler. These changes in the weather also usher in a change in the growth of the Bermuda grass in our tees, fairways, and rough. We've noticed, over the past few weeks, a sharp decrease in the amount of grass we are cutting each time we mow. This means that we are able to mow less often, which affords us more time to work on other tasks. The staff has been able to catch up on all sorts of details, such as edging sprinkler heads and basins, topdressing divots, etc. In another month or so, we'll likely have our first frost and the Bermuda will then go dormant until spring.
