Course Aeration Wrap Up

There has definitely been some delay since my last post, but it's not for lack of activity. Aeration was a challenge, but a rewarding one. The course has made alot of progress in recovery over the last week, and I wanted to share some pictures to confirm that fact: here's #17 green in time lapse form, both in wide shot and close up:

Day 1

Day 2

Day 5

Day 14

Day 1

Day 2

Day 5

Day 14

So though the greens may still be mostly slow, and a bit bumpy, the recovery is over 90% complete. And it might even be a bit farther along if it weren't for the past three sub-60 degree days and 2.3" of rain. But the sun is back, the temps are climbing, and we are beginning to work on speed and perfect smoothness in preparation for our Women's and Men's Invitationals coming up. The pain of aeration is over, let the good golfing season commence!
