Happy New Year! 2020 will bring a more functional blog that I hope that anyone would post a question or comments. Good or bad. I would like to keep the membership informed and this is the best way that I can think of to stay in touch with as many of you as possible. It was recently asked of me to talk about the bunker liners starting to show on Weiskopf bunkers. This is something that I will ask all of you to always let me know if you get into a bunker that had liner showing. Starting Monday January 6th, The Miller will be the closed course on Mondays and Wednesday Weiskopf will be closed. On these days, we will start to check sand level depths and add sand where we need. We have not "lost" sand, it just gets redistributed under normal maintenance and play. Take the chipping green bunker for example. We always have to pull sand down off the face. The bunker has plenty of sand, but with a lot of practice, the sand gets thrown up on the green or face of the bunker. The bunkers should only have about 1-2" of sand. But with as much practice that that bunker receives we are always needing to bring the sand down off the face and put back level on the floor. Same goes for the courses. This is something that will be a focus of ours starting next week. As always, thank you for the emails and questions and keep them coming.
Regards,
Donny Latham
