TurfNet Webinars....

I've been catching up on some TurfNet.com webinars lately and realized what a benefit it is to have these available online. I missed a number of these this past year due to some extensive traveling. Having these available in an archive is absolutely the best. Thanks to Grigg for sponsoring these great educational webinars. This webinar by Dr. Doug Soldat, Fundamentals of Fall Fertilization, I found really interesting. I know it's not fall, but if you haven't viewed this webinar it's a must for all turf managers. You can view it HERE

My Latest Read....

A few years ago Jim Haley, Highland Golf Services stopped in my office with Bill Bartels, Tanto Irrigation and gave me a copy of "Dream Golf" The Making of Bandon Dunes. Well, about that time I was slowing packing up my office for my eventual retirement from the golf course superintendent profession and this book was immediately packed. Well, after 3 years in a box and in storage, it was recently unpacked and moved up to the top of my read list. Can't wait to read the whole story. Thanks Jim for the copy. 




Visiting and touring Bandon Dunes was one of my true highlights
 of my golf course management career.

TurfNet TV - Latest Video is Live..

My latest ON COURSE video for TurfNet.com is live. In this video I chat with Dennis Kling, Golf Course Superintendent for the City of Loveland, Colorado. We discuss in specifics the Cattail Creek mini-course. This course was built to help "Grow the Game" of golf. It uses SNAG golf equipment and is a fantastic way to introduce young kids to golf.
