Spring Cleaning

       As we hit the half way point in March, the weather has been incredible. Rounds of golf are up and everyone is itchy to get things started. With some courses mowing through a good part of the winter and most aerifying now, it looks like the busy season is here! The biggest concern seems to be if you have not charged your irrigation system yet....It has been pretty dry. With no snow melt, it has all the makings of a drought year but as we all know, there is no telling what weather we will be getting in the Mid-Atlantic region anymore.
       I keep getting asked "what is going on out there" and I would have to say things are as positive as they have been since the tough times that started back in 2008. Most clubs have some capital , there seems to be more projects (Bunkers/Irrigation) starting or research is starting to see about costs. So are we back to boom times, probably not but are things looking better, absolutely. You just have to look at it from a different angle!

Happy Saint Patrick's Day!

An Old Irish Blessing

May the road rise up to meet you. May the wind always be at your back. May the sun shine warm upon your face, and rains fall soft upon your fields. And until we meet again, May God hold you in the palm of His hand
