Back on June 1st we welcomed our regional USGA Agronomist to Bretton Woods for a course consulting visit. From the USGA Green Section website: these visits “provide an objective, impartial, science-based evaluation of all factors influencing turfgrass health, playability, and sustainability.”
During our visit, we touched on several topics related to the
Bermuda grass, including shade and tree removal, aeration practices, and Spring
Dead Spot control. We also spent time discussing the health and performance of
the putting greens. As well as the interface between the cool season turf
collar and the warm season turf approach and difficulties of managing that
line. Overall, it was a valuable investment that we will continue in years to
come.
To conclude the service, the visit is summarized into a
written report for the hose facility. Below is the link to our report.

Thank you
Etiquette Reminder of the Month
Golf carts are capable of a very tight turning radius, but please don’t turn that sharply in the grass because it can tear the turf.
Also, as part of a Golf Committee initiative to improve
course etiquette, we have included links to videos teaching proper on course
etiquette. Please take a moment to watch:

See you on the course!
