Thank you to the 263 individuals that joined us in person or virtually for our @TargetSpecCan seminars. It has been a great couple of days with fantastic presentations from our industry partners. @BelchimTurf @DLF_Seeds .
@barstoolsports this guy should have probably kept his hands to himself. This was followed up by the unicorn of penalties from the refs, a double major for head contact. Good thing he only hit him twice. #FAFO

An impressive remediation job over 3 seasons by this super and his team on the top end of this fairway.

A little Labour Day match down at the pond before the Riders and Bombers battle it out later this afternoon

A little behind on fertility due to the sprayer pump needing to be replaced, so I played catchup with this mix. By design all our products mixed well in my high tech mixing station and the sprayer only agitates when it is spraying. Champs is ready for the long weekend shootout.

It’s always great to see people succeed. Awesome job by this super and her team over the past 4 months to get these greens healthy going into the tail end of the season.

I have been really impressed with this bentgrass mix from @DLF_Seeds this year. This green was seeded 15 days ago. #futuraproextreme @GaryfisherSS
Seen this in my travels today. A bear stripping the bark off this tree to get at the sap. Don’t f@%k with bears.

It’s a good thing the wetting agent is looking after the green as I am not. Power to the pump has been off for 2 or 3 days. Smoke is really rolling in tonight.

Took a trip across to the island today to check on our “employees”. Even on a Saturday afternoon they are busy working away.

Champs Green hasn’t seen a lot of love lately. Spent the evening working on cleaning up some stragglers as it has only been getting cut 1 or 2 times a week. Also added a little more down pressure on the brush.

Great night for a spray at Champs Green. First app of wetting agent for the season followed up by the first irrigation cycle.

Definitely seeing why this is becoming the PGR of choice for Supers in Western Canada
Listen in as Brian Youell, Master Superintendant from @Uplandsgolfclub in Victoria, BC talks about his experience with #Anuew PGR. Learn more about Anuew here: bit.ly/3UOOyKm

I was concerned with desiccation due to the turf being cleared because of ice or fully exposed for most of the winter. A hand brush, some fert, a mow and Champs green is ready for play. Had to help this new calf find his way back into the pasture where his mom was waiting.

What a great start to the 100th season @golfrevelstoke . Mark and his team have the course in mid season shape already. They don’t typically open for another week or so.
