Snow is Melting! Not looking good...

The snow is starting to melt, and today I went out to look at the greens again, and to say the least, it's not looking good. I have no information on how the greens went to bed from the previous consultant as of yet, but this doesn't look good. Looks like snow mold has made its way on the green during the winter and there was a lot of areas with it.

While I was looking at greens, some had some standing water, so I grabbed the squeegees to push as much as I could off. See video below.


The green on 5 is the only green that is tarped, and I asked the GM why they did that. The answer is that 5 green is out in the wind, and quite exposed, so they tarped it to help keep it from becoming desiccated.
