COURSE HANDICAP—

PROJECTED SPEED—FT

Course Handicap uses the 18-hole formula and par 72. Speed is an illustrative estimate, not a measurement; weather, turf health and maintenance change actual results.

03 / FROM THE GREENKEEPER

Good greens are
grown daily.

Healthy turf is a long game. We pay attention to the details beneath every putt.

THE TURF REPORT ✳

Care you can
feel underfoot.

Our approach to 007 and A4 creeping bentgrass begins with a firm, healthy rootzone and a surface that rolls true. Moisture, mowing and the weather all have a say.
