Tee Aerfification and Topdressing

We just finished up our first tee aerification for the year.  It went really well with us getting 9 holes done on Monday and finished up the second 9 on Tuesday.  We used our procore  which is the same machine that we use on our greens and we pulled just about a 1/2 core.  We then used our verticutting reels on one of our tee mowers to bust up and clean the plugs on the tees.  Today we mowed them for the first time and followed that up with a heavy topdressing.  When it is all said and done, we will end up using around 50 tons of sand for all the tees.  This should help make our tee surface smoother and a little bit tighter.  

Next Monday be looking for us to start aerifiying and topdressing our collars.
