Tee Aerification

A bit of a cold weather front hit the golf course, and the timing was great for our scheduled tee aerification. It is always nice to have a bit cooler temperatures when aerifying to avoid heat stress. The moisture levels however were a bit unfortunate. The tee box profiles were a bit too wet. Some of the aerification cores were not pulled by the aerifier because of this. That is the downfall to having excessive moisture during aerification. The cores that were pulled on the tees were removed by hand shovels. They were then thrown in carts, and hauled to the designated dump piles. Once the tees were cleaned off, Sand, fertilizer, and water were applied.
