If you recall, last week we were staring at some fairways that had gotten pretty banged-up from aerification. As a reminder, here's what #5 looked like at the time:
While the irrigation system allows us to get by for a while, there is no substitute for the uniformity we got from the steady rain earlier in the week. Additionally, going from high temperatures in the 90s, to the 70s makes a world of difference in turf recovery. #5 fairway looks just a little different now than it did a week prior:
Looking ahead, there are no days forecast to be in the 90s. This summer was just plain tough on the turf, so let's hope the weather prognosticators are correct!
