Course Update 7/8/22 On a very positive note, we can finally say that we have the disease under control on the greens. We’re looking forward to some sunshine and warm weather so that all of the density returns to the [...]

Course Update 6/12/22 I couldn’t help but notice that in the last course update written in March that I said that we had a good winter under the snow…and then it all went sideways. As the snow receded, disease developed [...]
