Junior Golf Update from Coach Chris - Meet Golf's Legends!
Hello everyone,
This Saturday, December 12 please consider
bringing your junior to a very special event. The PNC Father/Son Challenge at
the Ritz Carlton Golf Club and the LPGA will be hosting a complimentary Junior
Golf Extravaganza for both boys and girls. The event will feature golf games
and activities, take home free gifts and prizes, and perhaps most importantly,
an opportunity to see true legends in golf competing with their own son or
daughter as their partner. Golfers include Jack Nicklaus, Nick Faldo, Bernhard Langer,
Davis Love III and many more – in fact, to qualify to play, the golfers must
have won either a major championship or a Players Championship.
The LPGA has asked both Coach Miriam and I to assist and coach
and we are delighted to represent Heathrow/Legacy at this prestigious event.
All juniors ages 17 and under will receive complimentary admission as well as
one complimentary chaperone ticket when you register here https://www.girlsgolf.org/events/extravaganzas/2015-12-12
There will be no Heathrow Saturday clinic this week, we look
forward to seeing you next Tuesday or Wednesday. As always, please let me know
if you have any questions.
Best Regards,
Coach Chris

Sr. POY @GARL
Day 1 of the inaugural Senior POY tournament is complete. Robert Calcutt leads this 2 day tournament with a net 64. We'll played! The tournament concludes tomorrow with 9 am tee times.
Course Conditions Update
Late last week we experienced an outbreak of
fungus on the greens at both courses. We treated all greens at both courses with a
fungicide application last week and did a follow up application today at both
courses. The fungus is declining and should disappear throughout the week. We are
also doing a fertilizer application to expedite some growth in the areas affected
by the fungus. Several of our neighboring clubs in Central FL. are experiencing
the same thing. We should be back to normal by the weekend.
Thank you,
John Kopack

Note from Fazio Superintendent regarding Wet Conditions
We have been facing several
challenges over the past month when it comes to the irrigation system. We had
to recently replace the central irrigation computer due to a lighting strike.
We were able to extract some information from the hard drive, the one thing
that we could not was the station run times. We set all run times at the default
run time of 10 minutes then adjusted up and down accordingly. Adjusting
run times is something that we are constantly doing, it is an endless job. We are now adjusting from the summer watering schedule to the winter watering
schedule in which the amount of water used is greatly reduced. However, with the
above average temperatures that we have been having and the newly planted rye
seed on the tees and fairways, we have had to run more water than we normally
would during this time of year. The Rye grass is just getting established and
does not have very long roots yet so extra water is needed. Along with the wet
areas we also have areas that are not getting water and are turning brown, hole
15 is a good example of that. Our main focus the last two weeks has been these
areas. We have been tracking and replacing melted wire and replacing different
components in the irrigation controller boxes. While doing this we have also
been monitoring the wet areas and have been reducing times. As for #4 fairway, we
noticed that it was saturated and we started to turn the heads off in that
area. It can take several days for some areas to dry out because of the soil
type, in this area there is heavy soils with some clay. In watching this area
we saw it was not drying out so we turned off the heads that surround the area
and it looked like that helped some but the area was still staying wet. We went
to the irrigation controller box to double check that the station numbers and
amount of heads per station we the same as in the central computer when we
found several big ants running around. Ants, other small insects, frogs and
lizards can cause all kinds of irrigation problems from heads stuck on, heads
not coming on and heads that randomly turning on and off. The last was the
problem that we found here, there was an ant stuck on a computer board that was
turning on several stations in the wet area. We do go around to all the
controller boxes and put moth balls, ant powder and, as funny as it may sound,
urinal cakes to help prevent creatures from coming into the box. These all do a
good job but they are not 100 percent. There are also areas around the course
that we have reduced run times to dry that area out and the surrounding area
starts turning brown from not enough water. The fairway on #11 , about 125
yards from green, is a good example of this. We are still working on drying
this area out without the rest of the surrounding area burning up. We found
that there are five full circle heads that hit this area. We have taken two of
those heads and changed them to part circle heads and have them adjusted to
throw away from the wet area. This seems to be helping but is not the end
solution. The end solution is probably going be one more part circle head and
adding to the existing drainage. We are looking at areas like this course wide
and coming up with solutions like I just mentioned. Our end goal is to have no
wet or dry areas. This is a challenge when we have 90 acres of irrigated turf
and approximately 975 irrigation heads on inconsistent soil types ranging from
swamp muck and clay to pure sand and then factor in weather, insects and
mechanical failure. I feel that we have made substantial progress towards
our goal in the time that I have been here.
