HOT AND DRY, PRAY FOR RAIN A quick explanation on what we are doing to combat the restricted supply of irrigation water

We have some new residents on the course

Grooming greens today to thin out dense turf canopy. Rolling 11+

I'll bunkers are now hand rake to promote consistency in the sand depth and more uniform playability.

Moving sand around in the bunkers after a heavy play golfing season, then compacting the surface to prevent the fried egg.

Bursting at the seams, ready to go at 5:30 a.m.

Chef's herb garden harvest from this morn. The smell was incredible.

Starting the landscape install around our new classic 'ol Florida style Clubhouse. Lots of bromeliads and color through foliage instead of annuals.

Last wk's rains made the greens super soft after aerification. This bad boy should take care of the tracks.

Sand everywhere. Moving sand in the bunkers and top dressing fairways.

Cart guys plugged up the wash area. Call the superintendent.......SewerViewer to the rescue.

Installing new parking lot trees. No room to plant, root balls have to be small. That means smaller trees than we wanted, but it's all that will fit in the available space.

New curbing install on 13 grn and plugging out thin spots in new grn's perimeters on back nine. Front 9 new perimeters are all grown in.

150' of new RR tie curbing installed today on hole 12,Looks amazing. Great compliment to the new enormous Par 3 tee.

Finally got the ficus hedge trimmed behind the Club sign. Had to bring in a smaller machine to get in that tight space.

Rail road tie curbing install started. Great rustic look to make our 'Ol Fl design

summer projects

Removing 365 days worth of gnarled mess.

Removing the sand build up around the greens before reclaiming the list putting surface. Using a Wiedeman Super 600 with flail blades to do the job. Clean, efficient, and quick.

Timeline photos

Course closed due to massive storm cells rolling through the area. More on its way.

Lady's Opening Day....

Happy Halloween

Creating sustainable landscaping to enhance the golf experience

Begun removing 50 yrs of asphalt around 10 tee / 18 green.

Turf comb today. Stand it up and cut it off.

Course closed for a week so it's time to get down and dirty and do the things that make it great when it counts.

Life on a golf course begins....
