We have started our first week of maintenance (Thompson) on greens/tees/fairways. As part of this we will be vertidraining the greens and sweeping sand into the holes. This is to increase infiltration on the greens. In helping water move down through the greens soil profile so they will breath better and drain better. The dryer we can manage the greens the more consistently firm conditions we can provide. On Thompson the only green that we will not need to do is #5. This is a USGA built green that has a sand profile that doesn't need to be modified.
