Now that tournaments are over, we can lower the height of cut a little bit. Couldn’t be more pleased with how things have held up through three tournaments of not so hot weather.
Ever wonder how a field can look this good for its 4th straight game? Only explanation is having two of the best in the industry taking care of the field. Matt Hollan and Ethan Kain are the ones who make it look so beautiful.
This may be the only picture I have from my Masters experience, but I enjoyed EVERY minute of it. All I could think about was the grounds crew and the round the clock work they put in. Some people go for the golf, I went for the grass.
Replaced a slow leaking Quick Coupler today. Went from 3/4 in. To 1 in. This was my first time doing something like this, but was able to do it from text message directions. Technology in this industry is truly a game changer. The hardest part was getting the valve cover level.
Central Arkansas vs. Louisiana Tech is postponed after one pitch thanks to an issue with the artificial turf in Conway.

It’s been a VERY busy week here at the Jack, getting softball dialed in for the 2024 Season! We dug out 2inches from the batters boxes and catchers box and put in

Premium Clay. Next up, the mound
This is the view of a learning lab anddd the LAST irrigation head that needed replacing. It only took a week to complete while doing other tasks in between but 25 new heads later that are allll the same brand and style!
As we approach Opening Day, I wouldn’t be able to do what I need to do without our awesome irrigation guy

and his crew. They are the best in the business. They put up with a lot from us but always have a smile on their face.
What a busy few days it’s been at The Jack getting softball dialed in for season. Pulled cores, added some seed and some 5-4-5 organic fertilizer. Can’t wait to see how this outfield stripes up come February.
Hey grass friends. Does anyone else have these “snakes” after a heavy rain? What do you do to help decrease it? I’ve drug it, buffalo blown it to clean it up. But what preventative things can I do?
So glad I was able to sneak away from work for a bit to listen to
@TurfgrassTiger
speak about the future of Turfgrass management at the UGA Turfgrass Conference. Awesome Job Drew!
So thankful for this group of women who push me to be a better sports turf manager. I wouldn’t be where I am today without their guidance and mentorship. They welcomed me with open arms since day 1.
