First Fairway Aeration Almost Done

We are wrapping up the first topdressing and aeration on the fairways this season.  Like so many other things, the rain last week delayed us on this project.  Once the water was off the course, we then had to wait for the soil to dry enough to get heavy equipment back out.  We will be done by the end of this week.

We use a large solid tine in the fairways to break up the soil under the surface.  We are not pulling a core in the fairways and approaches to allow for quicker healing.  This is a project that we can do over a few days time if weather cooperates.  Lets hope the next round will be a little drier.
