It Must Be Hot Out

This is the stepcut on #5 fairway.  The browning you see is Poa Trivialis, a cool season grass that cannot take any heat stress.  This was probably seeded here at Arcola years ago and has still managed to stick around.  I consider it a weed that is tough to get rid of.   Most summers it looks like this and we are hoping it is dead but it returns as healthy as ever once the weather changes.  Maybe this year may be different so we can finally get rid of this nuisance.  This is not only on this hole in abundance but also on 15 and 17 fairways and roughs.
