Carts Off Paths

We got a few comments over the weekend about why carts were not allowed off the paths. This is because the turfgrass is currently not growing and therefore any damage that will be done from the carts will not recover. Plant growth is predominately dependent on soil temperatures and not air temperature. So while we had some nice warm days last week and weekend it was not enough to warm the soil up to get the turf growing. We are rolling greens to provide a smoother, faster putting surface. Mowing should begin in the next 1-2 weeks throughout the course.
