2 Course Communications The never-ending summer of 2018 continued through the month of September and the cool fronts that are so typical of late summer/early fall have yet to find their way to Chattanooga. In fact, the first 23 days of September averaged to be warmer than the entire month of July. Additionally, torrential downpours and localized flooding plagued the area during the last week of the month. Fortunately, Black Creek was spared any excessive damage but the wet weather did provide a very interesting day of TGA Mid-Amateur qualifying on Thursday, September 27. Due to the warm temps our greens quickly healed from aerification. However, they did suffer some heat and disease stress that normally does not occur this time of year. The combination of extremely wet weather and continued warmer than average temps will require extra careful monitoring going forward. And with the TGA Mid-Amateur Championship taking place October 3-6, time to address any issues will be very limited in the short term. For the long term, the best medicine for Bent grass is often the month of October. I have also found this month to be a good remedy for stressed golf course maintenance staff. Some things to look for in the coming weeks: - Cooler temps - Over seeding the range tee with Rye grass - The beginning of leaf season - Herbicide applications on weeds - Treatments for fire ants (please do not disturb ant mounds) Thanks, Scott Wicker Golf Course Superintendent
