Venting greens

Here is a picture of David punching greens with a slicing tine to open up some vent holes in greens. This is a very important practice on our greens that allows for increased oxygen exchange to the roots. When we've been getting the rain and humid weather you have to do this to give the greens an opportunity to dry down and breathe. It has very little effect on ball roll.

David is one of the most senior amigos - this is David's 8th season with us. One of the reasons the course looks so good is due to the hard work and dedication that these amigos give us. They can be trusted to do the most important jobs on the course.
