Greens Health

Our greens are recovering nicely from the summer. Some people may say "the greens have been great since our fall aerification, what do you mean they are recovering nicely?"  What we are talking about is the root recovery. Through the summer, we lost most of our roots. This is typical of bentgrass greens in the summer.  Since our fall aerification we have been pushing root growth.  We are back to around 4" root depth on average. This is a very promising sign of our greens health going forward. We still have some really good weather ahead to push the roots even more.  Everything is pointing to healthy greens going into spring and even healthier going into next summer. 

Enjoy the good golfing weather we have coming up.
