New 9 Construction Diary.....Page 11 |

Beautiful blue sky, eh? The dry weather
has been wonderful for construction so far. At some point, though, we will need some nice, soft, all night rains.
In this photo, we are seeding the fairway (bentgrass) and rough. The cart path is the light streak. #9 green is
in the distance. The upper end is yellow since Courtney Contracting is power mulching the area with straw. This
was taken on July 12th. |

Mulching day on #9, just in front of the
green. The seeder is on the right, and the hay truck and shooter are in the center. It's quick but very dusty. |
| |
|
|
 |
This is #9 on
July 20th. Our grass came in quickly.
This view is looking down the cart path toward the green. The fairway is a bit slower to germinate, so it still
looks much more yellow than the rough. |
| |
|
|
 |
The construction mix is in on #2, and
is being smoothed. The fairway is being cleared of debris. It's very, very dusty. This is July 20th. |
| |
|

 |
Here is #9 on about July 27th, growing
in nicely. The drop area is in the foreground. |

Well, the dry weather had to end sometime.
Like July 28th. This is looking across 9 fairway toward the white tees. It held up pretty well, all things considered. |
| |
|
|
 |
Even though there was grass covering most of
the fairway and there is a diversion channel above the fairway, the 4" of rain managed to push over the super
silt fence in this spot. |
| |
|
|
 |
#9 green hadn't been planted as far in advance
as the fairway, so it really got washed out. We had to spend several days re-leveling the surface, clearing debris,
and reseeding. |
