It is a result of a herbicide we sprayed to help eliminate the bent grass contamination on the tee surfaces. It also controls crab grass and some broadleaf weeds. It may take 2-3 applications to totally eliminate the bent grass contamination. We will then start the process of seeding a new stand of blue/rye grass. Yes they may look a little funky at times, during this process, but should not effect playability.
It’s never a good time to control. Heading into fall will give us the best chance to establish our new seed.
As shown in the picture the yellowing areas are bent grass and crab grass.
While out mowing on Sunday morning I hit something in the collar on #18. Yes it was a quarter! This time I was lucky and did no damage to the mower, other times we have damaged the mower and had to grind the reel and bed knive. As shown below the quarter did not fair so well.
Please pick up your ball marks.
We will see you on the course.
