New Brush is here!

A while ago I talked about the demo brush we used for filling in the holes after we had aerated. We took ownership yesterday and we put it to use right away. As I mentioned before this brush has many uses and the one that we used today was to stand up the grass and mow following to improve the greens putting quality. Over time grass can get laid over and actually not get cut by the mower. This slows done the ball roll and makes for an inconsistent cut. The plan is to do this process a few more times in the next few weeks before the heat arrives.
Bunker prep is in motion which includes reclaiming some lost edges and adding sand. Our mulch progress is coming to a close with just a few holes left. And you may have noticed some work being performed at the back of the range. Stay tuned for more information to follow on this.

If you look closely you can see grass blades sticking up
much higher than normal. This is what the brush does for us.
