TURF TALK
Brad Seiler
Happy August, Black Hawk Members!
Projects continue to be in full swing Due to some untimely weather at the beginning of July, some of the scheduled projects that we had hoped to be started last month ended up getting pushed back into August With that being said, it will add some excitement in a month that is one of those you just kind of strap yourself in and hold on The renovation of the bridge on hole #12, the installation of a new bulkhead on hole #14, and the installation of the SOX lake bank erosion control system on hole #17 will now all take place in August
We will continue our greens programs, nutritional and cultural, but will incorporate regular brushing along with our weekly verticutting and topdressing August 8 -10 we will be performing a second aerification
On tees and fairways, similar to greens, we will continue our nutritional and cultural programs throughout the month and will be verticutting and aerifying during our closure on August 8-10.
On behalf of myself and our Agronomy team, we thank you for your patience and continued support.
