These pictures show the winter damage on our 7th green. The damage is in the lower areas of the green where ice formed and several freeze thaw cycles took place. The constant freezing and thawing causes the cells of the grass plant to rupture, killing the plant.
An aggressive aerification and slit seeding will take place next week along with a nutrient application program designed to nurse the new seedlings to germinate and develop. The affected areas will be covered until the turf can withstand foot traffic.
