Just add water....

In July, we added irrigation to areas lacking adequate coverage on the Driving range tee, #13 tee, #14 ladies tee, #15 behind the green, and the left side of #1 green surround between the green and the start of #13 fairway. These locations had been identified over the past season and a half as having weak or no coverage.

After last season's addressing of every green complex, the priority has shifted to areas of limited or no coverage. For the past few decades these areas have had to be hand watered daily throughout the summer heat to maintain at minimal a stand of turfgrass. Correctly triangulating the head spacing and installing a sprinkler has made the world of difference as illustrated in the photos below:
