A Birds Eye view of our @BASF Pylex work on hole 13. The progress year 1 is right on target. Spray warm season turf and then introduce a good cool season blend. Before and after photos are proof.
We have begun trying to keep bermuda out of our new greens. @BASF Pylex going out on a couple to see the results. The bermuda should turn white soon hopefully leaving the bent untouched. Tough weed and process but hopefully we can at least reduce the growth rate of the bermuda.
Dr. Bruce Martin and Dr. Emma Lookabaugh explain how the ‘intrinsic’ value of plant health can help you build a reliable disease control program.

When you’re the #GOAT you really should have a plaque on the wall to celebrate it! I’m delighted that the folks from @BASFTurf_us were kind enough to mount the article we did on @JohnJeffreys3 decade at the helm of the famed No. 2 course at @PinehurstResort. Here’s that piece: https://t.co/NHoHOr6QdZ
Loved having @TheGCSNetwork on property this week to document all of the hard work from our staff and volunteers. This has been an amazing week and one we will never forget! @PGAChampionship
So privileged to be part of such a special week at Valhalla. Thank you for allowing BASF to support this tournament and a big shout out to @jballard1@VineyardPhillip@Paytonhobby3@justinRwilt44 for your leadership and professionalism that you showed this entire tournament!
Excellent large patch control with two fall applications of Pillar SC (1 floz), Pillar (1 floz)/Xzemplar (0.26 floz in spring), Xz (0.26 floz + Maxtima (0.56 floz), and Ascernity (1 floz). Applications made on 9/29/23 and 10/25/23. All treatments performed well! More comments...
It's the little things that help create an environment people want to be a part of. Things like a fun challenge among peers helps build camaraderie and culture. AIT @jrip323 paid off his fantasy football loss by entertaining the @ValhallaGrounds tent prior to night maintenance.
@jballard1 and his team at Valhalla have created exceptional playing conditions this week and we were proud to support them. See how our latest innovation, Aramax Intrinsic brand fungicide, has helped to protect their new zoysiagrass fairways - https://t.co/sus2GvmScH
Another great moment from my visit to the @PGAChampionship … finally meeting up with the legendary (and Twitterless) equipment manager Jason Newman. He’s been at @ValhallaGolf for decades and has supported every championship they’ve hosted. My fun interview with him is here: https://t.co/L4XSXS1FLK. Enjoy!
Here’s @jballard1 talking about having a former @ValhallaGolf assistant turned @BASFTurf_us rep, @basfpinehurst, helping out for the championship and collaborating in trials for Aramax to stop large patch on the course’s zoysia fairways.
Louisville will be in the spotlight again next week as @ValhallaGolf Club hosts the @PGAChampionship. @jballard1 and the team chat about the unique challenges of hosting a major and how important this event is to the Kentucky golf community.
