Course Update
Course conditions here at Wolf Creek continue to dry out. We have carts off the paths on almost all the holes except for a few. It looks like we are finally going to get some much needed sun over the next several days along with some much warmer temperatures which will be a welcoming site. The staff is continuing to mow the roughs as much as possible. We have been able to mow it three times this week and the clippings are getting less and less each time. It is next to impossible to keep up with the growth habits of the cool season roughs during heavy rain events like we have had over the last week. We will continue to work on keeping the rough at a playable and manageable level so that your golfing experience is enjoyable. The greens have continued to improve this week and are just about back to be being 100%. It was a slow recovery this year with the weather but I feel we are set up to have a great season on the greens. This morning we were able to get out and do our second mowing of the year on the zoysia tees and fairways. The weather forecast for this weekend and into next week will really help the tees and fairways to take off and should help our slower green up areas to continue to improve. One thing I would like to remind everyone is over on the right menu of this blog there are some logos of our local superintendents association, our national association, and USGA. You can click on these logos and it will redirect you to the home pages where you can find some other information on golf course care and maintenance. I hope everyone has a great weekend and it looks like sunshine and warmer temperatures are on their way!!
