Please Repair Ball Marks

Repairing ball marks on greens is an important etiquette that preserves green playability and roll through out the day.

As we enter winter time it is increasingly important to repair ball marks on bermudagrass greens. Ball marks left unrepaired will leave a small unsightly mark in the green disrupting the playability and aesthetic beauty of the green.

Properly repairing a ball mark is the best way to ensure all golfers can enjoy their rounds with out disturbances on the green. Below is a United States Golf Association (USGA) video showing how to properly repair a ball mark.

Proper repairing of ball marks is essential to preserving putting green playability (GCSAA).

2014 Tradition A Success

Last weekend was the 4th Annual Tradition at The Peninsula Club. The event was spared by weather and it ended up being a wonderful tournament and event. The golf course maintenance staff put in AM and PM shifts throughout the week to produce an enjoyable and beautiful golf course. 

The members and their guests were very complimentary of the course and the job the staff was doing.
