Range Tee

Due to the unfortunate loss of our irrigation system during 90 degree temps late this summer, weeks of newly germinated seedlings were wiped out on the range tee. Seven days with above average temps and only limited access to water took its toll on the rest of the tee as well. After discussions with numerous members that the tee had very little grass to hit from the tee was closed. We have aggressively seeded and fertilized the tee and the recovery has been exceptional with cooler temps and plentiful rainfall. I recently seed-avated the tee with the highest setting to help fill in any remaining bare spots and reapplied fertilizer.

The range tee is typically closed for the season in mid to later October to take advantage of the few remaining weeks of growth before the cold sets in.  The tee will remain closed for the rest of this season so that we can start fully healed next year.
