8" main line irrigation break on #6 Bear tee area.  The break shut down the irrigation system for a couple days waiting on parts. The parts were fused together and back in operation.
Great Job to Chuck and Jake.

Fertilizing both Golf Courses

Welcome to the new Golf Course Maintenance Blog.  We will update regularly and you can save the new address to your favorites:  greensideup.blogspot.com.

We just completed a "weed and feed" fertilizer application on 150 acres of fairways, tees and rough.  This fertilizer will keep the turf dense and help combat against all the Good Year tires that are now rolling down the fairways.  By the way, it's just a coincidence that I, as an Iowa Hawkeye fan, ended up with black and gold fertilizer (below)...but it sure will turn things GREEN!
