Hurricane damage

After receiving 4.5 inches of rain and heavy winds the course is in good shape.  The bunkers held up relatively well and we only lost 5 trees.  The pine tree pictured barely missed #2 green and the left rear bunker.  All greens are in great shape.  The quarry is full of water and the course is draining well.   All of our new drainage is working well and the sod from last week held up great. Our focus will remain on the greens but it will take the next few days to cleanup the golf course and club grounds.  Greens were mowed for the first time last week and are progressing nicely.  Another application of fungicide and fertility were added Friday to beat the rain.  Once things slow down, I will post more pictures and updates on the greens. Power is still out to the club but the driving range and outdoor tennis courts are open at 10:00 am.  Have a good day.
