What do we do when the course is to wet?

Some days just don't go as originally planned.  We have received a great deal of rain the past few days and that has made the course a soggy mess.  One of the many "benefits" that come with these days when they happen is our many many many on course projects.



Since my arrival #14 teebox area has bugged me greatly, with extremely limited irrigation to adequately grow a healthy stand of grass.  To the left you will recognize this horrendous area, from what I have gathered it has looked like this for quite some time.

Below you will see our finished product in just one day.  This incorporated hauling lots of stone, digging out some of the grass that was there and then planting some very rugged perennial flowers that love full sun and poor soils and irrigation.

Hope all of you enjoy the many changes and improvements!  Happy golfing!
