Poa annua has been a problem in warm-season turf this spring. There are several reasons why 👇

Getting the 18th #NationalGolfDay Lobby Day kicked off on Capitol Hill with over 300 participants representing 41 states at 250 meetings. #GolfAdvocacy issues of focus are H-2B, USDA turfgrass survey, PHIT Act and PAR Act and funding for the National Agriculture Statistics Survey. gcmonline.com/course/environ…

National Golf Day service projects are off to a great start! @GolfSuper2GM, @PLCCGCS and @GCSAACEO are among the group adding gold paint to the signatures of those who added their names to the Declaration of Independence.

Mission accomplished for #NationalGolfDay! After months of weekly phone calls, endless coordination, and plenty of last-minute planning, its time to spend the evening enjoying a Nationals game with an outstanding group of fellow team captains. Thank to @MidAtlGCSAA and @ESAGCS for volunteering!

Great day at the Old Soldiers’ Home Golf Course for the National Golf Day service project. Got to meet some great people from across the country along with many of the members and staff from the golf course.

It's time for some recovery. DryJect going down on the greens today and cooler temps forecasted ahead. It's been a summer...

Every golf course loses grass sometimes, especially during a tough summer like this one. When it happens, golfers often wonder why, so let’s take a look at some of the usual suspects 👇

Tree shade doesn’t just diminish the amount of light reaching the turf, it also reduces the quality of light that gets through. This is one more reason to prioritize tree management 👇

Joe put on a show in July and is our @ticasino Player of the Month for May! 🚨 Repost now for a chance to win a signed Joe Ryan baseball!

It's been a tough summer so far and plenty of courses have areas of dead grass. Take advantage of any opportunities for recovery and think about improvements that could reduce the risk of problems in the future 👇

If you see someone from the maintenance staff hand watering the green you're playing to, try to be patient and understand that they're working hard to help the greens get through tough summer weather 👇

Superintendent’s, Staff and Turf waiting on the cool front to come through tomorrow night in the Transition Zone.

5 Rules For A Better Life: 1. Focus only on what’s in your control (Epictetus) 2. Strength is the ability to remain calm in any situation (Marcus Aurelius) 3. Free of passion, full of love (Marcus Aurelius) 4. If you need help, ask (Marcus Aurelius) 5. Take wandering walks (Seneca)

A quick transition from a cool and rainy spring to hot summer weather means many courses in the Northeast have weaker turf than they’d like. Exercising caution now will help courses stay in good shape through the months ahead 👇

Golfers are ready to play when they arrive at a course, but the course wouldn’t be ready for them without a lot of hard work that starts long before the first tee time 👇
