Mountain Branch USGA visit


We had a fantastic visit by the USGA at Mountain Branch yesterday. Despite a few thunderstorms we were able to get our full visit in. A lot of positive came out of our visit. Our reclamation work on the native areas have been paying off as we received a lot of positive feedback. Suggestions were made for continued applications and we are looking forward to experimenting. We have made leaps and bounds toward our Poa erradication in both greens and fairways. Our Prograss program initiated in late fall last year really paid off! Contuing with a Primo program and keeping fertility up will only further our success.

Mountain Branch has really come a long way in the last 8 months, roughs are getting full, fairways and tees are tightning up! Great job to the staff!

I am very much looking forward to the USGA at Hartefeld in 2 weeks. We have put a lot of work into Hartefeld. I am looking forward to having them see the changes.
