Last Monday, we had Darin Bevard from the USGA on property for his annual visit. We toured both golf courses. We wanted to continue to solicit the USGA's input as to the direction we are taking the golf courses. He had favorable comments on the bermudagrass progress. We shall continue with our applications, continuing to expand the bermuda areas slowly. The tree removal was positively reviewed and we anticipate even better fairway conditions this season. We reviewed our greens programs and looked at our root systems. Both golf courses had exceptional root systems, which is great going into the summer season. Darin really liked our greens expansion on Seaside and commented he could not believe it turned out as well as it did. He also liked the larger collars giving us two distinctive looks. We reviewed suggestions to improve the weak fairways on Newport and looked ahead to improving conditions in our roughs. It was an excellent review!
