Our plan to dethatch the approaches failed to materialize as we had equipment problems. Once fixed we intend to continue to dethatch all of the approaches and then topdress with sand as well. We were however, able to verticut the greens on Tuesday and sanded 1 - 9 in the afternoon. We intend to finish the back nine today ( Wednesday). This practice will continue throughout the spring to try and reduce the organic matter and help smooth out the greens.
Aerification and sanding the fairways is still planned for next week starting on Monday. This could change if the weather changes.
