AUGUST 2026
Overseed Prep throughout the month
Golf course will become brown as the bermuda grass becomes dormant.
Towards the end of the month, we begin to scalp fairways and rough. The golf course becomes very firm and fast. Very much tougher playing conditions and more fun to play.
August 25-September 1 – Course is sprayed out to force into dormancy. Color changes to more brown daily. Green are still good at this time but may run slow depending on weather.
