Recovery of #7 Green



Below are pictures of #7 Green over the last few weeks.  The first photo clearly shows thinning and overall decline of the turf on the left side of this green.  Morning shade, lack of air movement, and poor internal drainage were all contributors during the extreme conditions we experienced this summer.   The pictures show recovery following the break in temperatures and the 2.5" of rain we received over a two day period.  What stood out in this particular case was how quick the green bounced back following the assist from Mother Nature.
