Soft Conditions

The recent weather has made conditions very soft on the golf course. The newly sodded areas are extremely soft and even walking on these areas will cause significant damage. As of Thursday morning 4.5" of rain has fallen. We have also not been able to mow anything since Monday. Obviously Greens, Fairways, and Rough have grown substantially this week and we are not sure when we will be able to get the mowers on the golf course. This rain event has been much different that the rain we received from Hurricane Irene. This rain has lasted for day with minimal run-off. Most of this rain has soaked in thus saturating the already wet soil. It will take some time for us to dry out.
