Bunker Maintenance

April is always one of the busiest months here at the Club. Masters week brings in lots of guests and at the end of April we hold the AGA Jambroee. With all those extra rounds the course gets beat up more than normal; especially the bunkers. To keep up with all the extra play we are checking sand depths and pulling sand away from the edges that have become too deep. This is a very labor intensive job and takes close to 30 minutes per bunker depending on the size.

New Fairway Yardage Markers

Hopefully while you are out on the course during your next round you will notice the nice new fairway yardage markers. They have been installed at 150 and 200 yards from the center of the green. These new markers replaced the painted white concrete blocks that were in the fairways.

Irrigation Head Markers

All the sprinklers withinn 250 yards of the green have three yardages on them. Front, middle and back of the green. I recently checked every sprinkler to see if there were any damnaged or missing tops. I found a handful of broken or missing ones, so new tops were ordered and will be put on this week.
