Hosted @randomgolfclub at Louisquisset Golf Club tonight. Conditions were fantastic following the Blue Heron member/guest tournament. Hope everyone had fun all weekend.

@mjsully123 Ouch. I feel your pain

@golfsuper1992 I used Wix. Very easy and you can use a template and just fill in the blanks. Check it out. https://t.co/zf77VeWgoN

A few pictures from today where CTS is helping out amidst a labor shortage for a very important 4 day member/guest! It’s a privilege to work with a great course. Remember CTS is here to alleviate Superintendent’s stress. ⁦@MGA1897⁩ ⁦@CAGCS1929⁩

Should they put the plugs back from where they came from or leave it looking like the picture

The Orchards greens are almost our bentgrass but full of different varieties. Which leads to my poll in this thread

[Certified Turf Services @turfdoug]

It’s a hot one out there & we’ve still got drought conditions on this sand based golf course I’m consulting at, but the short grass is holding it’s own #singlerowirrigation #connecticutgolf #golfcourseconsulting ⁦@POGOTurfPro⁩ ⁦@Aquaritin⁩

The dry drought conditions these last few weeks seem over, it looks like hot, humid, and wet weather is ahead. Who else got their pythium application out this morning? #golfcourseconsulting

[Certified Turf Services @turfdoug]

Drought stress on the trees near a green. This green was clean about an hour ago and already covered in leaves again. Trees are dropping leaves due to drought stress. Anyone else seeing this? #bringtherain

[Certified Turf Services @turfdoug]

It was great to consult with a course I worked with last year this morning. CTS was founded to help superintendents & clubs succeed, insuring both are set up for success. A quick visit can help dial in conditions, meet expectations & alleviate superintendents stress.

@AnthonyPioppi @brianwacker1 @MattGinella @Linkswhistory If the drought keeps up we may have a few here in Connecticut.

Fairways looking lush and green too with Aquaritin Defend.

[Certified Turf Services @turfdoug]

⁦⁦@Aquaritin_Turf⁩ - it’s heating up here in the Northeast (my wife finally convinced me to put the ac on), & I can honestly say using Aquaritin on the tees at 2 of my courses has produced great color response and less water use. Come see it in action in person in CT!

[Certified Turf Services @turfdoug]

@Sgdog3 That’s rough. The one I have been using is hit or miss if it’s working. I have gone through too many belts to count because the “right” belt has been back ordered for forever.

[Certified Turf Services @turfdoug]

Greens are scary dry after the weekend. They are actually green and healthy, I just like the way @POGOTurfPro visual analysis came back.

@NJNGREENS When the sprayer is working, I spray, when it’s not, I pray. Sprayer issues all year long this season.

@BirdsofTurf I should have taken pictures of the birdhouses that I mounted to the exterior of the shop, prior to the snake deployment. I still see them flying around the area. I waited until the baby birds were able to leave the nest for a few days.

[Certified Turf Services @turfdoug]

Got birds in your shop. I highly advise “borrowing” your sons fake snake. Barn Swallows were all over the inside of this shop. After 3 days and moving the snake once a day the birds have moved out on their own. ⁦@GCSAA⁩ ⁦@CAGCS1929⁩ ⁦⁩ ⁦⁦@BirdsofTurf⁩

I’ll be dropping off free samples of @TurfMend in the next 2 weeks, who wants some? Bent, KBG and Turf Type Tall Fescue. I have personally used these and the results speak for themselves. A simple solution for a common problem. https://t.co/0xGLq64WDP #RepairTheBare #divots

[Certified Turf Services @turfdoug]

@TurfMend samples are ready to go. Who wants some? Creeping Bentgrass, Kentucky Bluegrass and Tall Fescue are all ready.
