Arizona Golf Courses and Overseeding

Overseeding is a crucial practice in golf course maintenance in Arizona that involves sowing new grass seed over an existing turfgrass. This process is typically undertaken in the fall when temperatures cool down. Cooler temperatures create optimal conditions for seed germination.

Aerification

Monday & Tuesday we finished Aerifying the greens on the course. This process is never “fun” and obviously no one wants to have bumpy, sandy greens! If we had a choice, we wouldn’t do it, but we have to. It is imperative to the health of the greens and allows us to have healthier, fuller, […]

Course Updates

As we prepare for overseed, we have been busy doing some projects that might not be the “most visible”, but crucial to the health and well being of the golf course during this transition. We are about halfway through our rough aeration. This is the second time we are working on this this summer, mainly […]
