Getting Aggressive On Greens

Today we continued our recovery process from aerification. After we aerify, the grass blades tend to get fat and lay over. We got aggressive today and started curing this. We mowed greens this morning. Then we lightly topdressed to help them get back to smooth and firm. After our topdressing, we verticut the greens in 2 directions. This helped to stand up the leaf blades that were laying over. 
It also helped work that sand down into the canopy. Then we brushed the greens to finish working the sand into the canopy and stand the leaf blades straight up. 
Tomorrow we will mow again and then spray our growth regulator on the greens to help slow the vertical growth. 
Here was our finished product today after a little water.
