An update seems long overdue, but there was no true transition between winter and spring this year. Friday's snowstorm covered the course for the weekend, and the rest of the snow melted by Monday afternoon. The water from melting snow, along with warmer temps and longer days (More Sun!) woke up the Poa in greens. So Monday, Tuesday, and today have been spent prepping greens for the season.
Triplex Cutting greens Monday afternoon
Many greens are ready and are being opened for play this afternoon. We are evaluating on a green to green basis, so a few greens will remain temps until they show enough growth to recover from foot traffic.

The season came quick this year, and the crew is working hard to get the course prepared. Please bare with us as we have prioritized prepping and opening playing surfaces over getting the course cleaned to our standards. Bunkers, rough, and tree lines are still in need of spring cleaning. The crew is making great progress, and we will catch up quickly.
I'm looking forward to the 2016 season! The course, greens, and carts will go as soon as each area shows it can grow and recover from daily stresses. If the weather stays this way it will be very soon.
See you around The Links soon.
