During the upcoming winter season we are putting a lot of effort into continuing our irrigation adjustments throughout the course. Most of these adjustments will be to eliminate areas that do not need to be irrigated. The first area of attack this year was the right rough of #10 before the pump house.
Our irrigation tech Hung had to move three sprinklers and change out 6 full circle sprinklers to part circles. With these changes we will help to reduce our water usage as well as improve turf quality through better coverage in the fairway. We followed up these adjustments by aerifying, seeding and top-dressing the thin areas in the rough and fairway.
