Mother Nature is constantly effecting our course conditions, sometimes for the better, and sometimes for the worse.

It s a constant balance and in my opinion, all about timing, to combat those elements and provide you the members the best playing conditions day to day.

3 Page Country Club J uly 2017 T U R F TALK Hope everyone is having a fantastic summer. How about that US Open, Erin Hills looked great and looked like a fun course to play. It was interesting seeing how mother nature effected the playing conditions during the championship, not only day to day, but hour to hour. The same goes even here at MCC. Mother Nature is constantly effecting our course conditions, sometimes for the better, and sometimes for the worse. Our course, being right on the Arkansas river, is effected by winds, rain, humidity, storms, lightning, and all of her elements, it s amazing to see how the course does truly change day to day. It s a constant balance and in my opinion, all about timing, to combat those elements and provide you the members the best playing conditions day to day. Many of our cultural practices, are all about timing. Some of you may have never seen some of the tasks being performed, all to provide better turf conditions. So far, this summer, we have aerified green surrounds and tees, verti-cut tees, we pulled cores as opposed to dragging them back in the profile, replace with new sand, we are doing an extensive amount of rolling on the putting surface, and our weekly verti-cut and topdressing of greens. All this to, keep the turf healthy and in top playing conditions. Many times, the course seems to be in good condition, then all of sudden, the very next day there may be holes in the greens, or lines from verti-cutting, or sand from topdressing. These are the essential cultural practices necessary to keep the turf healthy and consistent, and we appreciate everyone s patience and understanding while the crew is performing these tasks. Along with the cultural practices, we have been on an extensive spray program to combat undesired weeds, treating well over 50 acres. With all the rainfall we ve had this spring, weeds are more present and keeping everything mowed at our desired heights has been challenging. As we prepare for the upcoming, we encourage volunteers to come out and help us mow, as during the Four Ball. So be looking for a schedule volunteer form or just contact Lance. Also, I appreciate everyone who is participating in the adopt a hole, I can t express how much this means to our department. Thank you to everyone, this is allowing us to address issues out on the course that have been neglected for quite some time. Let s all keep taking pride in our Championship Course. See you on the course. Lance Norwood G/C Superintendent S A V E THE DATE...

Rolling Hills Country Club in Cabot has a Mixed Scramble on July 15/16. They do a very easy tournament and usually serve some good homemade soup. We have several couples registered already for the Red Apple Mixed Scramble, July 29/30. We had a great crew of MCC couples last year, and I think we will have more this year. They have some new tees for ladies and some for men. Our congratulations to Sandy Carpenter and Debbie Pipkin for raising $2400 from the Garage Sale held at Sandy s. This should complete what they want to do in Ladies Locker Room. We are very proud of them for handling this and completing the Project. Thanks to Kathe Parson and her volunteers for enduring the rain in our Mixed Scramble. Morning players completed 18 holes, but our afternoon teams got pretty wet. Food was great and spirits were good. The gift of rounds of golf and $100 credit was given to all who played. I think everyone was happy with the reward, and will be back again next year. Kathe has a great gift for recruiting our teams. Wanda Jett did a super job with her ladies in the Annual Willie Odom 4-Ball Tournament. We are so lucky to have these ladies that work so hard to see that everything comes together and our guests have a good time. Our volunteers are something special.
