Winter Damage to Turf - Golf Course Update


Continuous improvement. The weather has not been conducive to rapid growth but the North greens are slowly improving. The damage was severe but not devastating. I think in a few more weeks we will see 100% recovery. The South is nearly damage free with #8 green the worst. The damage on the South was not as severe because we routinely remove snow from those greens.

The fairways were severely damaged and some of those areas will be sodded throughout May and June.

Below are some photos from the North comparing what we were seeing in March and what we are seeing today. We've come a long way.
