Nobody likes aeration, the necessary evil in fine turf management. However it is vital in providing optimum playing conditions, which we strive for on a daily basis and the members expect on a daily basis. Drill and fill is disruptive but key in drainage. We were fortunate that Double D was able to move up our date due to inclement weather in the future and my staff once again killed it. Lugging sand to the machines for 10 hours straight so we can get it done in one day and the members can get on the course the next day.
Starting under the lights at 6am.A deep tine on top of the drill and fill to improve drainage even more.
24 hours later....Like nothing happened. Members will have great greens to putt on Easter weekend.
