Just mentioning the word "aeration" can bring out negative feelings among golfers everywhere. But aeration is one of the key components to healthy playing surfaces and soil composition on the golf course.
Mother Nature willing, our plan this year is to aerate the tees the week of Sep.7, then collars and approaches the week of Sep. 14, and finally the greens during the week of Sep. 21. We plan to stay open on "alternative" greens during that week.
Tees, collars, and approaches will be done utilizing 5/8" hollow tines. While the greens will aerated with 1/2" hollow and solid tines. The 2014 process on greens went very well and we will utilize the same process. Refer to the 2014 Greens Summary post for the detail of the greens process.
The Team appreciates your continued support during this very important aeration process!
