May Thunderstorms

Since Monday morning we have received tremendous amounts of rain, so far totaling just over 6" here at Canyon Farms.  The atmosphere has been so unstable that even yesterday without warning and without anything on radar a thunderstorm quickly brew and dumped large potions of hail across the golf course.  Here are some photos showcasing what we saw:

The greens made  it through relatively unscathed even with the large hail stones, but we will remain cart path only until it is dry enough to get carts out.  Thank you for your patience and may you all have a great Memorial Weekend Holiday!

Canyon Farms - New Bunkers Summer 2016

Sand is being delivered!!

As most of you know we will be rebuilding our bunkers here at Canyon Farms Golf Club.  This will be a major improvement as we will be going with a blended Arkansas White sand (seen at many courses within the city) along with a TOP of the line system to seal the underside of the bunker, reducing all washouts and contamination.  These two processes will begin in early to mid June and be completed within 45-50 days.

The "liner" we have chosen is called the Better Billy System, here is a short video showcasing the system along with a great article showcasing its benifits.

I hope all of you are as excited as we are for this major improvement to Canyon Farms!
