TDI has completed their punch list projects and has begun to demobilize their equipment. This is always an exciting time as we wrap up the construction phase of the renovation and shift our focus to final grow-in steps and grooming the course to be ready for play come November. The service yard along Callawassie drive will remain operational for a few more weeks as the equipment trucks arrive to take the remaining equipment off the island.
The golf holes on Palmetto are really starting to look like, well, golf holes. Despite our late start on planting Palmetto 7, the sprigs have really taken well after the double planting rate and additional fertilizer applications. We hope to put the first mow on number 7 this week. The other 8 holes have really established well and have all been mown to the final height of cut. We will spend the next two months completing routine mowing, fertilizing and topdressing to finalize the grow in before opening. Bunkers will begin to be raked and compacting the newly installed sand will be our focus. Tie in sod work outside of cart paths has been completed and we have begun working on our Pinestraw beds to get those areas back into shape. We call this phase, the final push, as we count down the days till opening. The team is excited about having the finish line in sight and we can't wait to show off the new Palmetto to the membership soon.
