This post kicks off the Tuscarora Grounds Maintenance blog. What I'll be doing is giving the reader a Superintendent's perspective of what's happening on the course from week to week. I'll cover projects that are underway, new programs that affect play, hot-button issues such as green speed and bunker firmness, general agronomy, and a 'how-to' section regarding turf-related issues such as preferred ballmark repair and divot replacement. I'll also address concerns or comments that have been passed on by the Pro Shop or Greens Committee members regarding the course.
Why do this?
Getting progress reports and course news to over 300 members regarding their property is something Nick and I think is important. We feel the more information people have available to them, the easier it is to do our jobs and look ahead. Considering the variety and scope of work that goes on during a week, I think a blog format works well as a resource for updating members as to what's happening to their golf course and more importantly, why it's happening.
