Converting tees to Bermuda grass

As part of the finishing touches of the Master Plan, we will be re-sodding the ryegrass tees on 6, 7, and 9 to Bermuda grass. This will be occurring over the next few days. During this transition, tee markers may be in different locations.

The tees on 6 are all still ryegrass so the tee markers will be placed in the rough in front of the tee boxes. We will mow a clean area for the markers.

On holes 7 and 9, there is only one individual tee box on each hole that remains to be converted. On these holes, the tee markers will be moved forward or backward a single tee box to accommodate the work.

Once the new sod has started to root, we will begin to incorporate it into our maintenance. However, please remember, we will be mowing the new sod at a higher height of cut for the remainder of this season. We expect these new tee boxes to be back into regular rotation within 2 weeks.

Thank you for your patience during this period. The transition to Bermuda grass is for the overall improvement of the course.

Etiquette Reminder of the Month

Please be conscious to not cut corners with your golf cart. The inside edges of turns are easily worn out after repeated traffic.

See you on the course!
