TURF TALK

September, the back side of summer, and what a summer it has been so far Record-setting heat accompanied by record-challenging and breaking drought
The month of September is a month when most cultural practices are behind us, and it is a time to recover from the many stressors endured over the past couple of months Cooler weather and some needed rainfall will also help us get the course dialed back in Projects are coming to an end, and we are pleased with the SOX lake bank erosion and bridge projects Moving forward we will focus on details and returning to premium playing conditions Our plan is to continue with our nutritional, soil, and PGR (plant growth regulator) programs, making slight seasonal adjustments when necessary The next scheduled pre and post-emergent herbicide application will also take place this month
It is great to have a complete Agronomy Senior team in place as we move toward fall. We are excited to announce that Mike Anderson is the new Shadow Hawk Golf Club Superintendent. Mike performed double duty in July and August before moving over full-time from Black Hawk. Chris Teafatiller has settled in nicely as the new Superintendent at Black Hawk and Jose Tostado is hard at work and enjoying his new role as our Equipment & Facilities Manager.
September usually means those of you who had the opportunity to escape to more favorable climates are slowly returning. Club events and the Fall golf season are getting underway, and the Agronomy team is energized and committed to making it a memorable time for all.
On behalf of myself and our Agronomy team, we thank you for your patience and continued support.
