After a couple of relatively snowless winters, we may have become somewhat complacent, and taken for granted that the course will be accessible every day. However, a quick look at the number of rounds played so far this month (zero), makes it clear that there are times when neither golfers nor grounds staff can work on the turf.
With another week bringing more snow, what can we do now? Well, January and February are the two months of the year when we are permitted to prune the wetlands crossings, and this work must be completed using hand tools only. Fortunately, snow on the ground is not an issue for completing this task.
We may have had visions of doing drainage work now, but at least we are still able to complete this necessary annual project. Many folks have had their fill of snow this winter, but soon enough, we will undoubtedly be commenting on how hot it is.
