Today was the first time I witnessed the range tee completely full. The weather was perfect as we topped out at 75 degrees. Days following a heavy rain in the mountains always seems to be cooler. It is hard to publish these weather conditions considering every other Superintendent across the country is dealing with extreme heat. I can not complain about the weather even the moisture, but now is the time to visit Vail Golf Club and get out of the heat.
The course is finally beginning to dry up. We'll spend the next couple of weeks recovering from minor flood and water damage. Most areas will rebound nicely, but some sod and seeding will be required. Today we hosted the CJGA with the 14-18 year olds. The event went smooth and the course was a nice test for this group. They just need to work on their pace of play. A five and a half hour round for this course is not exactly the greatest way for the younger players to develop their game. But today is over and tomorrow we'll be back to our normal four hours and seven minute pace.
