Greens Aerification

The time has come again to aerify  greens. This aerification we used a 1/2" tine and pulled a core. We then cleaned the greens off and put out a heavy topdressing of sand to fill the holes. The sand is then dragged on the greens until the holes are full. If there is any excess sand, it will be blown off of the greens. 

This Fall aerification usually signals the end of Summer for us on the maintenance staff. As much work as the process is, we are usually very happy to get to this time because the greens (and us) can all take a deep breath and start to enjoy Fall when the process is done. 

Thanks for hanging in there with us this Summer and I hope to see you out here in a few weeks when the greens are in great shape again.
