Fairway project

Yesterday they started smoothing out the fairways as the grassing date is fast approaching. The anticipated plant date will be mid June so lots of work to get done the next 2 weeks.

Live Oak Update

The first part of the project has been completed. The rough tilling of the grass has been finished. Next week a crew will come in and do some finishing work followed by the sprigs going down. ( probably mid June). LakewayMUD has also started there project around the perimeter of the course and are on #2 now.

Goosegrass info

Here is a little information about goosegrass from the USGA. We have made 2 applications of our PreEmerge this season. I just thought the information was worth putting out to the membership.

Here is the link to the article:

Root Pruning

Got some root pruning done around some of the greens at Live Oak yesterday.

Yaupon Railing

We were able to finish the new railing at #13 Red tees at Yaupon. Think it came out great with a nice wood stain to help protect it.

Rain

Crew did an outstanding job getting course ready for the final round of the 2019 Member Guest tournament. Last evening we received 2.75” of additional rainfall making the weekend total of 3.50”. Thanks again to all the participants for making the tournament another success.
