Dear members,
It looks like we are on our way to summer after a brief
return to winter over Memorial weekend.
The course is coming along wonderfully.
We have begun working on the bunker project again and have completed the
large greenside bunker on #4 which was contaminated with a tremendous amount of
debris. It looks and is playing
great..let us know what you think. We
have 4 more greenside bunkers to finish then we will be starting on the fairway
bunkers. We have also begun our efforts
on drainage around the course and you should see firmer, dryer conditions as we
progress through the summer. You will
see new sod installed in areas as we begin this project in earnest and I would
ask that you are conscious of these areas and stay off them until we remove
ropes. These areas will be designated
GUR-Ground under repair.
We have turned our focus to weed control, tree limbing and
native clean up recently. As we have
passed what hopefully is our last really cool spell we will begin clubhouse
plantings and other landscape work.
The greens are coming along nicely and are looking great for
a summer of heavy play. I stimped them
today and they are running around 10-10.5.
They will continue to speed up and smooth out as we start our regular
mowing and rolling schedule moving forward.
Feel free to let me know if you have any concerns on the
course and visit our blog at www.jacksonholegolf.blogspot.com
for our “tip of the week” and other
course information. Have a great summer.
Andy Erskine, GCS
