@PeteNBCBoston That’s not an improvement, we need rain.

Now that we’re officially aware of each other, let’s agree to keep a wide berth and we won’t have any problems (Sound up)

There’s so much mycelium on these greens, I just spit out my coffee and I wasn’t even drinking any. Finally got the pump working on the 20+ year old sprayer but now water spews from hoses. Tech making a house call on Monday, and contractor coming in Wednesday to spray everything

This thing is about to get a workout

Frosty start to the week, and second day of the season. Carts on paths are a possibility later.

@clamberton7 Felt it in Southbridge

I think we just experienced an earth quake. @jreineron7

We had some sun this morning but it’s since disappeared. Today’s opening has obviously been pushed back. Looking at possibly opening for walking on Sunday. Tomorrow’s weather will play a big part in that. Some pockets of the course may not see enough April sun to melt the snow.

Ahead of today’s “warm” rain, we pulled the cover back on 4 green yesterday. This was my first look at last years vandalism so I have nothing to compare it to but it appears there is some healing along the outer edges. Seed had not germinated. We hand spiked and reseeded. Cont’d

[ClassicSuper @ClassicSupt]

Ideally I would have liked to slice seed or verticut then seed but both machines used for those purposes were leaking oil and gas, and not safe on the green. The cover was pulled back over the green, and will hopefully trap some heat from the next couple sunny and 50° days

One of my biggest pet peeves especially on the greens loop. An inefficient system needs all the help it can get

[ClassicSuper @ClassicSupt]

Feels considerably colder than a windchill of 15°. We’re inside again today, catching up on course accessories, inventory, cleaning up, etc.

@TimothyJ32 I’m not a huge fan of the zones either but if divide the greens into thirds, it likely still gives you room to avoid any wear or damaged areas

[ClassicSuper @ClassicSupt]

@TimothyJ32 You could go with rotating zones. Zone 1 on green 1 is front. Zone 1 on 2 is middle. Zone 1 on 3 is back, etc. My personal belief is most people should be aiming for the middle of the gr. They’re not as good as they think. Also, most players that are good enough have rangefinders
