It's been a long, challenging year. Definitely ready for the season to be done, but the views definitely help.

72 hours after greens aeration, 1x2 spacing, .625" hollow core. Loving the speedy recovery, and hitting them again today with post aeration fert spray. #ctmafia

Some days you just need to start early. Front 9 tees getting aerated today. Trying to beat the heat a bit.

Unexpected visitor in our 11th cup this morning. Mole crickets aren't common in CT, but they do exist. Thankful we don't have the numbers to cause issues up this way.

Happy to get the 1" of rain last night. But it didn't make it to this area of the fairway. It's only about a 1/2" of thatch, yet it was bone dry first thing this morning. 🤞 We can get the aerator out on the fairways soon.

Now that this showed up, I figured it's time to announce that I am officially a @GCSAA Certified Golf Course Superintendent. It's a huge honor to have passed the process. Thanks to @cagcsprez53 @bonini_paul @WLagasseTurf @EMorrisonCGCS @CAGCS1929 #ctmafia and everyone else.

Nothing like pulling a rock the size of your hand out of the 6th green. Took cutting 4 cups work to finally pull it out.

Buh-bye palspalum! Love it when it turns white when it's fading.

Looking like a fantastic Saturday!

That time of year again! Take a break from the grind and head down to Storrs for some research insight. While your there you can check out the back-to-back @UConnMBB natty trophies, that’s one thing you can’t find @UMassAmherst @UConnTurfpath @UConnTurf @1881turfalumni

Happy 4th everyone! Super excited for the root length of the greens going into July and the stressful summer months. Vast improvement over last year when they were closer to hockey pucks.

Surviving the first heat wave of the year - excited how well the greens are holding up, with very little hose dragging.

Bravo to Jason Cannata and the incredible TEAM at TPC River Highlands! Their hard work created a golf course that was in superb condition, setting the scene for an excellent competition and a thrilling finish! @jimabate @PGATOUR @PGATOURComms @TravelersChamp

Register today for the @CAGCS1929 June meeting. Thanks to Stonington CC and host @WLagasseTurf our presenting partner @DunningSandman and all of the sponsors for the event!

Absolutely loving how the course is failing in right now.

Perfect timing for show and tell. Pulled this the day before a board meeting. Benefits of deep tining early this spring.

Another 1-3 inches on its way today, perfect day for a quick mow and roll, light topdressing with @DunningSandman 's finest, and a quality rinse-in with @heritageppg @jpopko7 Aquacare, @SyngentaTurf Posterity XT and @Quali_Pro Total.

The auction ends tomorrow April 27 at 10pm. There is still time to bid. @CAGCS1929 @CSGALinks @GCSAA

Opening day today! Not bad given it was a little over 3 weeks ago we finally were able to get out on the course to start cleaning up the mess from the ice storm. Looked like this (and worse) around the whole course.
