This past week we finished leveling and seeding the #7 and
#16 Championship tees. The sprinklers will be turning on automatically
at 10:00 AM and 2:00 PM for the next couple of weeks to ensure proper
germination.
Questions have arisen about the areas next to #14 tee and
behind #15 green. We are in the first
stage of a project to reseed this area to fescue. These areas have been designated as “low
maintenance” and we are seeding a mix called “Bandon Dunes.” Weather permitting, seeding of these areas will
begin next week. The best time for any
seeding is August 15th - September 15th. This time is ideal because soil temperatures
are high and nighttime air temperatures are low.
