We got another 2" of rain yesterday. The course is really wet. We are unable to get equipment out on the course for leaf cleanup and bunker work. We fixed a lot of the washout today by hand and once it dries down a little more we will get the bunkers raked. It's going to be a little while before we can get tractors out there to blow leaves.
This recent warmer weather has really got the greens growing. We verticut on monday and have been mowing everyday, but they are slower from the excess growth and wet conditions. I backed off the growth regulators for a week or so to thicken them up. It worked, but letting the regulators wear off results is slower greens from the additional growth. We sprayed on Monday, so the growth should start slowing down by the end of the week. This combined with drier weather should start to speed them up.
