Club Course News
The Club Course has had many exciting and newsworthy stories this summer!The Summer Tournament Program has been nothing but a success,
Maintenance Joe Hubbard, CGCSAnticipation is in the air for the start of the new season. We are finishingup the final details around the course to meet that anticipation. We arestill recovering from the drought and finalizing the last of the projects.
As the weather cools, we will beable to implement our program toincrease greens speed throughoutthe season.
Projects:Projects:Projects:Projects:Projects:The synthetic turf was replacedwith Seashore paspalum at theMain Driving Range Tee and isnow in the rotation for the tees atthe pro shop’s discretion.
I will open the rear driving rangeand practice chipping green assoon as the qual ity and theability of the turf to recover is atits fullest ability to recover.
The seashore paspalum teereplacement will continue until wereach our budgeted amount. Thefirst tees completed will be thefirst to open as we move furtherinto the season respectively.Eventually, over the next couple ofsummers, we will make all teespaspalum with the exception of afew par three tees. I decided toexpand the #1 white tee that wasso inadequate to handle thenumber of rounds it receives.
The Phase II plan of Buzz Jazkelawi l l be implemented at ourdiscretion where we will needtrees and/or plantings to enhancethe playability or aesthetics of thegolf course.
The last aerification will take placein the middle of September (20th,21st) with smaller tines so therecovery time will be less overallwith decent weather. In Octoberwe will be trimming the trees,mulching, planting the flowers anddoing our last hard herbicidesprays until things warm up in thespring.
Ropes will start to go back uparound the entire course, alongwith traffic control signs. If it wasmy preference I would not haveany of those objects dotting thegolf course, however, due to theheavy play, it is a necessary evilfor the course’s protection. Theninety (90) degree rule will be ineffect the entire year. Make yourruns parallel in the rough to yourball and then make a straight lineto it in the fairway. We wouldappreciate when you reach theapproach ropes/balls, never driveacross them as a shortcut but exitto the cart path and park your carton the concrete.
For the handicap players, we askyou not to cut across any ropes orsigns around the greens. To getto the designated parking markersaround the greens, please use thecart path to go past the green andthen up to the markers. This willpreserve the quality of the turf andaesthetics around the greens.

We would like to remind everyone that all players are required to checkin at the pro-shop before playing each round. We would like to requestthat everyone remain respectful of the golf course, continue to adhereto cart traffic rules and pay special attention to the repairing of ballmarks.
Our golf professional staff will consist of John Skaf, Jeff Waber, JuanPino, and Debbie Munoz. Jeff is new to our staff and has extensiveexperience in the golf business and I am sure he will be a welcomedaddition. When you get a chance, stop by the pro–shop and say hello.

Golf MaintenanceJoseph HubbardJoseph HubbardJoseph HubbardJoseph HubbardJoseph Hubbard, CGCS
Since last season, the Old Course has had some major changes to theexterior of several holes on the front nine but an intense planting planhas been replacing more than what was lost due to the construction.
damage done to the originalpractice green that also has beenincreased in size this summer.There will be NO chipping to eithergreen, as we were able to keep thechipping green in its entirety. Weadded a new chipping area to thewest side to give another angle towork on those tough chips.
All the new plantings along #2, #3and #9 have already beenmentioned.
A late addition project was addedin August to take out the thirdbunker on the right of #18 fairway.With a great deal of input from allvarious groups this should put torest the long discussions for thatfinishing hole.
We look forward to your continuedenjoyment of the golf courses andhope we meet your expectationsand in some cases surpass themthis season. Any comments forimprovements should be directedto the Green Committee Chairmen,respectively, or me. Have a greatseason!!
Mounds along #2 and #3 are inthe final stages of planting andlandscaping, along with the finalplantings on hole #9 around the teearea. As all the new materialbegins to mature we anticipate thatyou will enjoy the quality of the newtrees and shrubs versus the noxiousexotics that were removed.
Many dead trees from thehurricane and drought damage havehad to be removed around thecourse, especially between holes#1 and #18 due to safetyconcerns. We are implementing aplan to plant more native trees andsome berming to redefine the breakbetween holes.
Ropes will be going up for theseason with a different twist laterin the season. To uphold the qualityof the rough, once we raise theheight back from 2.0" to 2.75" inSeptember, we will be directingmore cart traffic into the fairways.This will protect the definitionlonger later and make the courseplay better for the tour event inFebruary where they thought ourrough had been worn down toomuch due to cart traff ic.
ProjectsProjectsProjectsProjectsProjects:We have built a new 6,000 sq. ft.practice putting green near thechipping green for this season tohandle the increased play for ourmembers and hopefully, avoid the
