Test Plots

On the 8th fairway today we did a test plot using ammonium sulfate fertilizers to try and deter worm castings from occurring.  Over the past few days, worm casts have come out with a vengeance and will become a playability issue and wreak havoc on our mowing equipment.  Insecticides are expensive to apply and we decided to experiment with fertilizers first and see if watering practices will have any impact.  Stay tuned for any results...if any.

US Mid Am Qualifier

Qualifier under way this morning.  Thanks to my crew for putting in the extra hours this holiday weekend trying to play catch up after Sundays rain.  Greens are a little soft for my liking today, players should be able to go low.
