After getting off to a late start Monday morning due to the rain Sunday evening, we managed to complete all aerating and topdressing yesterday. This did not come without a great effort put in by the crew. We started aerifying at 4:00am, all greens were aerified and cores cleaned up by 12:00pm. With the sun shining and the forecast calling for rain the rest of the week, we pushed hard to get the topdressing process done and by 6:30pm after 14.5 hours, everything was complete. In the days to come, the rain or irrigation water will push the sand down into the holes and weather pending we will be doing another application of topdressing in combination with our bentgrass interseeding program. Below are some pictures of the process from start to finish.
