Nicklaus Course Update 9-24-12



Nicklaus Course Update   9/24/12


             

              During the past week of closure on the Nicklaus Course, we overseeded the tees and fairways with our Rye grass, as well as the Borland Course.  When the overseeding starts to establish its roots and matures enough, we will begin mowing and striping the fairways, tees and approaches; however, until then, the course conditions will be slightly wet and the grass will be longer than normal, as we will be watering throughout the day.  As you are aware, it is very important to keep carts off the fairways during the closure to keep the seedlings from tracking into the rough.   We ask that over the next week, you drive on the cart paths or on the rough as much as possible to keep the stray Rye grass to a minimum.
On a different note, the greens have fully recovered from aerification and are rolling great.   Other small projects were completed during the closure such as cleaning of the dunes, pruning trees, cleaning beds and edging of the cart paths.  Thank you for your patience and understanding as we prepare these courses for the upcoming fall, winter and spring seasons.
