Update next day: Out doing some sampling and there are channels of fresh sand from the dry ject. The depth varies but looks to mostly be 3+ to around 4 inches, some deeper. Picture in comments. The sand on the surface is still wet after having been drug yesterday and dragging the dew off this morning, but there really isn't that much sand on the surface, a fraction the amount we would normally have to blow off after 1/2 inch punch and fill. Still a 2 day process overall. 1 to inject the sand and the next to blow/drag off excess sand. Smoother surface though. Yesterday: Long and productive day today. Tried a different procedure to aerate greens today. Hired a contractor to use water pressure to shoot dry sand into the greens. Less surface disruption and all greens completed in 1 day rather than 2. Much less excess sand to remove and a smoother putting surface when finished. The greens were verticut(dethached) yesterday for the 3rd time in the last month.

Had a dead tree dropped today. It was an ash in an out of the way spot that the owls, hawks, and other birds loved. Part of it fell over the weekend so the rest was cut down to prevent it from potentially falling on the new house next door.

How can someone not notice these? It isn't hard to do the responsible good golfer thing and take proper care of the course.

The last 6 weeks or so the crew has been busy with some fall work and repairing flood damage. Spots on 16 green damaged by the weather extremes have been repaired. More bridge work is on-going. Foot bridges either replaced or pulled from the woods and repaired and replaced. The bank under the cart bridge on 18 stabilized. Almost 1000 pounds of Turf Type Tall Fescue has been seeded into the thin non irrigated rough. 2 Tenacity herbicide applications have been made on the intermediate cut around every hole and on the green banks to kill volunteer bentgrass ahead of a good blue rye seed mix being put down. A 3rd ap in about 10 days. A good low mow bluegrass will be cut into the intermediate cut. And about a half dozen irrigation leaks have been repaired. This isn't everything from the last month showing there is lot more than "how hard is it to cut grass" we sometimes hear and read.
