Tree Trimming

Due to the inclement weather today, we are postponing fairway aerification. To accomplish aerifcation correctly on fairways, conditions must be dry. Proper cleanup is a must in these areas and the moisture will disturb any goal we have to accomplish this correctly.
Instead of fairways we moved to roughs. These areas need very little clean up due to the wider spacing. This way we can remain productive and prepare for fairways and greens when the weather is right.
We are also able to accomplish a lot of tree trimming throughout the course. We have a team of 8 staff members, cutting, cleaning and hauling away tree debris. We are clearing low limbs to make golf shots under trees possible. We are also removing a lot of dead material within the trees as well. Clearing this material not only provides a better golf shot, it also allows for more air movement, and sun and water exposure to improve growth for turfgrass around and underneath trees.
