Showing the new irrigation tech the importance of doing an irrigation audit. Dialing in greens before the weather turns less than ideal is a process than everyone should be familiar with. Inconsistent greens moistures drive me crazy but a simple observation and adjustment helps.

Phase 1 of the new irrigation system going in this morning

[Dave Ferrin @daveferrin6]

@carlylemerring No need to flymow now!

[Dave Ferrin @daveferrin6]

Setting up the new GeoLink system for the Toro 5800 spray rig. Saving an acre of fertilizer and chemicals on greens applications alone. Definitely worth the investment.

Demo of the S Track 720 with the fraze mow attachment. Testing different depths to see how much material can be removed vs. recovery time. This could be a useful tool in removing collar dams.

It may rain….

[Dave Ferrin @daveferrin6]

Had to break away from the daily grind. Wish this rain was south of us right now but we won’t let a little rain ruin our mini vacation!

[Dave Ferrin @daveferrin6]

Maintenance Monday! V-Cut, Mow, Topdress, Roll/Drag, and a pinch of 0-0-22. My favorite day of the week!

[Dave Ferrin @daveferrin6]

Heck of a sunrise over hole #6 at SCGC this morning! It was a peaceful moment. Sometimes you just need to look around and take some deep breaths

[Dave Ferrin @daveferrin6]

First closure of the year is complete. My crew worked their tails off to get finished in time. Everything is cleaned up and now just waiting on some much needed rain!

[Dave Ferrin @daveferrin6]

@carlylemerring Those are pretty

[Dave Ferrin @daveferrin6]

To say we need rain badly is an understatement! Busting our tails with water hoses and wetting agents!

@FarmerGolfNtUrf That’s unbelievable

[Dave Ferrin @daveferrin6]

It’s that time of year again! Low humidity, high winds, and no rain in sight. Collars start burning up! Help from Plant Food and Hydration A+ to restore moisture into these areas.

@GalloTurf @DogsOfTurf @EGCSAHome Yeah, Brandy would NOT just sit there behaving! I’d have a chase on my hands for sure
