[quote]Fairways are great. There are definitely some bare spots on the greens but they're largely puttable and coming back decently after a rough summer. Not bad all things considered. They just hired a new PGA pro named Kevin Landry a week or two ago, so hopefully he can get it in great shape ag...

Clark Park Golf Course Opens Tomorrow

Posted by LSUGolfman on 4/30/23 at 12:32 pm
Clark Park GC officially opens May 1. The course is in pretty good shape. The greens are good. Greens have full coverage of Tifeagle Bermuda and zero Poa annua. Fairways are pretty good, but you can see a few areas that still need to grow in. I think it's the same price as City Park to play. I...

re: City Park BR Reno?

Posted by LSUGolfman on 10/30/21 at 12:34 pm
Nathan has worked with BREC for several years consulting on various projects (ie mini range at Webb). Currently, he's looking at potential course improvements at City, but a major renovation is not near term. The new course at Clark will be planted in May of 2022, with a scheduled opening date o...
I heard a new group of investors has a new idea for The Bluffs. They're going to get the course back in shape and try to make money selling real estate and operating the club. This new direction that the new owners are going to take just may be the magic formula for success that has been missing a...

re: Beaver Creek… people suck

Posted by LSUGolfman on 7/11/21 at 7:06 am
Beaver Creek has a good golf course superintendent. He's been there about four years and things have gotten progressively better each year. Increased demand (from COVID spurt or other courses closing) does not improve conditions, at least at BREC. Their budget is set at the beginning of the year ...

Dumas was/is a horrible golf course that should have either been completely rebuilt or closed years ago. The fairways are common bermuda, not 419 or Celebration like every other course in town. There is no irrigation on tees on tees or fairways. The irrigation around the greens is like what I hav...

I would not recommend bermuda to anybody. I've been growing it for 25 years. It's just too much work to keep it weed free. There are some zoysias that are really nice. Do well in sun or shade. Geo or Zeon or maybe even Palisades. I'm not sure about any of these plants ability to withstand lots...

I was out there a couple of weeks ago and it was good. Greens were very good, fairways nice... very few blemishes on the course. Yes, they were still in the middle of bunker renovation project, but its a cool layout and in good condition overall....
