GOLF TIPS

The Can't-Miss Putting Grip

ORLANDO AREA MAINTENANCE SCHEDULES    Coming ...Spring 2012

Just when greens are at their best the aerification process begins. A necessary evil to maintain healthy putting surfaces, the average healing time in the summer months is about 14-21 days, some courses healing faster than others depending on the type of grass involved. Most courses will aerify 2-3 times between now and the fall. We will update this chart as aerifications occur to keep you informed.

UPDATE: With the early hot temps we have had the rye is starting to recede creating some rough conditions out there. Aerifications are just around the corner, O.G.C. will continue to update the 2012 maintenance schedule for the courses listed below throughout the summer.

* (t/f) = Tees and fairways only. ��* (w/w) = wall to wall  *(t/f/g) = Tees, fairways, and greens, (s/t) small tines/holes

WHAT’S NEW.......

Champions Dwarf Bermuda greens have been installed at Celebration and Orange County National's Panther Lake....both courses getting great reviews! Major advantages are faster green speeds and less maintenance requirements. These are the same fast greens you saw at the PGA Championship in Atlanta this year.

Royal St Cloud now 27 holes. Great Shape....Great Deals...Play for $25 or less April-May! This is a serious golf complex....
If you haven’t played RSR lately, you are missing out on a great links experience right in your own backyard. The new Red or Scottish Nine is great fun, links features you won't see anywhere else in the Orlando area. For tee times and additional information, call 407 891-7010 or go to www.royalstcloudgolflinks.com
