A SNEAK PEEK.........

 
Things are slowly starting to get going on the golf course. We got the greens mowers out for the first time today. As it turns out, only 6 greens on the entire property had any growth to mow off. All but one of them were tarped since November.
 
Below, Mickey puts the first cut on 12 green for the season.
 
 
 
As mentioned in an earlier Blog, we are much further behind getting the course prepared for opening than we have in the last bunch of years. Notice all the snow still on the left of both photos? We still have snow and ice along tree lines and in some bunkers. Clean up has only just begun this week and I hate to say, but next week has significant rain in the forecast, which, if we get, will stall the clean up causing us more grief. With less than two weeks to our opening date, it is becoming clear we will be no where near as prepared as we always strive to be. We will undoubtedly be continuing clean up around play in April. Lets just hope we get some spring like weather before July gets here.
