Messy messy.....

As you may have noticed ever since Jamie Farr wandered off the golf course that the rough has been a wee bit stout of late.  The Farr week rain combined with lovely growing conditions have turned our rough into a lush "cabbage patch".

Best rough we've had all season!!

While it is nice to finally see some green, healthy rough after such a dry, hot summer, it is unfortunate that it came so quick!  As you may have noticed with your own home lawn, it is incredibly tough to keep up with this accelerated growth rate. 

Fortunately, this flush should subside with the shorter days and cooler temps as hopefully the turf will decide to start growing some roots instead of lush topgrowth.  Bear with us as we continue to battle.  There may be some clumps in the rough for awhile, but soon we should be back on top of things. 

Finally, we will also be tackling the remainder of the cleanup post Jamie Farr.  Crosswalks are being punched, and when time allows, we will be out with some sod to repair as much remaining scarring from the summer as we can afford.  #7, #4, #3 among others need some sod especially in the step cuts around greens where poa "gave up the ghost" so to speak.
