Soil Amendments

This week we are making a soil amendment to the tees and some of the fairways on the Bear Course.  This product is basically a compost.  It will provide better water and nutrient holding capabilities to the sandy tees and high spots on the fairways.
Here you can see it being applied to the beginning of #11 fairway.

 We covered all of #6 fairway.  This should provide for a denser and healthier turf.  This particular fairway could take five times more water than others just due to the fact that it is sandier than most. 

You can see it being applied to 11 tee here.  Afterwards it was dragged into the canopy with a steel drag mat.
