A much needed rain

Yesterday we had almost .50"inch of rain within a two hour period later in the afternoon. It was heavy at times and with that there was some minor clean up with storm drains, bridges, debris, etc. It also led to some soggy lies in fairways. Are prediction is that the golf course will be back to normal by mid morning Friday. Hopefully you have read this far into the blog because here is the best part. In the four days so far this week we have mowed our greens 6 times, verticut 2 times, and rolled all four days. Even with the rainfall they were stimped at precisely 10:45 a.m. rolling 9.7 feet. The fastest we have had them all summer so far. Expect an increase in green speeds as we cool down and approach fall.
