Vertical mowing

We have completed an aggressive vertical mowing on the Greywalls and Heritge Greens and Approaches this month.  By vertical mowing and consistent sand topdressing we can keep our surface organic matter in check.  The yearly 'aggressive' vertical mowing eliminates the lip that can develop over time at the green/Approach transition.  This lip holds back surface water drainage and it does not allow for a smooth ball roll when one is putting from off the green surface.  Both are negative characteristics that we want to avoid.

  2. McGinley’s is going to lead the European team against the U.S at Gleneagles in Scotland for the 2014 Ryder Cup. The event is going to start on Friday. The golf cart enclosures is high because the European team has not lost at home in 20 years.
