Yesterday's aerfication went really well. We were able to complete all the front nine fairways, number 10, and number 12. Most years, we are wrapping up work on number six (our last front nine fairway) as it's beginning to get dark. This year, we were almost finished with it by 3:30! For almost the entire day, our equipment ran well, which is a rarity. I say almost because our tractor that runs the big blower had a major breakdown towards the end of the day. Fortunately, our friends at Ravisloe are going to be bailing us out today with a spare tractor. Tee and collar aerification also went well, as the front nine is complete and ready for play.
I had planned on getting pictures of the whole process up on the blog yesterday, but it was a very hectic day and didn't get a chance to take the pictures. Since we don't have quite as much work to complete today, I will try to get pictures up later this afternoon.
Remember that the back nine is closed today until the aerification is complete. If all goes well again today, we should be able to open the back sometime in the afternoon. Check with the pro shop for the latest updates.
