Our fall agronomic plan is wrapping up this week w

Our fall agronomic plan is wrapping up this week with major fairway work being done by our friends @sportsturfspecialtiesinc. We are having our fairways verticut and sanded. This is absolutely a critical part of our plan to improve this playing surface. Sand will not only smooth out the playing surface, but over time with repeated annual applications the sand will improve firmness and drainage of the fairways. This is our 4th application in the last 3 years. The verticutting is removing an incredible amount of organic matter and grass from the fairways. As a result the grass stands up more, the sand can get under the leaf canopy, and the fairways will feel less squishy. Thank you for your patience while we continue to work to improve the playing experience in Brookline. @brooklinerec @townofbrookline @negolfsupers

The only spot you’re allowed to be sad at the golf course, waiting to be picked up. Fun days are at the golf course where everyone can feel the excitement like kids do. Come on by and enjoy the beautiful fall weather, golf course is in great shape! Enjoy the excitement and bring home the memories. @brooklinerec @playmassgolf @townofbrookline

This week we are continuing with our agronomic imp

This week we are continuing with our agronomic improvement program focused on our approaches. First, a heavy top dressing is applied. Then, on some of our approaches with rocks near the surface, we are using our @ventrac_tractors with the aeravator attachment which does an incredible job below the surface. After aerating, we follow with verticutting applying vertical cutting to the turf. Once all the thatchy material is cleaned up, the entire approach is seeded, and brushed. In a short few days, the approaches are healed up and returning to normal playing conditions. This agronomic practice relieves pressures from compaction, playing, improves the existing turf, increases firmness and smoothness, and increases the turf density with the overseeding. We are working hard to improve the turf quality on all of our playing surfaces. Thank you to the golfers for your patience and patronage!!

This week we welcomed friends @sportsturfspecialtiesinc to the golf course to continue our fall agronomic plan. This week we focused on slice seeding fairways on holes 7, 8, and 9. This agronomic practice has never been done before here and we feel that this will allow our fairways to continue to improve. These holes struggled severely with the historic rain of 2023. With night time temperature retreating and the hope of manageable precipitation in the forecast, we pressed the go button and made this investment. Up next, continues aeration on approaches next week. In October, our fairway improvement plan continues with verticutting and top dressing. Stay tuned…

The Brookline Golf Course is hosting the 3rd Annua

The Brookline Golf Course is hosting the 3rd Annual MIT Sloan School of Management’s “Writing the Code” event today at Brookline Golf Course. Writing the Code has expanded this year to welcome 120 students, 36 alumni, 12 @newenglandpga professionals, and MIT staff. Bringing together various communities together to network, introduce the game of golf, and have conversations about diversity, equity, and inclusion. All 180 attendees enjoyed a delicious barbeque by @hemlockbrookline. The golf course has proven to be a great vehicle to have these important conversations and the role that the game of golf can play is priceless. @pgareachnewengland @mitsloan @taylormadegolf @townofbrookline @brooklinerec @newenglandpga #morethangolf

As the sun sets on another fantastic day at the go

As the sun sets on another fantastic day at the golf course, I want to take a moment and thank the incredible effort and dedication from our Golf Course Superintendent Mike Murphy. Today isn’t any different than any other day at the course, but tonight we won’t be taking his dedication and efforts for granted either. Mike is the first one to get to the course most days, and many days he’s one of the last staff members to leave. There isn’t a person that works harder than Mike, and when something goes awry, Mike is always there helping or leading a solution to the problem. Mike juggles so many aspects of the job everyday and always maintains a sense of calm that ripples throughout his entire grounds team. Murph as we all call him, wants nothing more than to see this golf course become what he knows it’s fully capable of and balances improvements with playability perfectly everyday. He is so excited for the Landscape Master Plan to become a reality, as he’s keenly aware, it’s everything that the course needs to see its potential realized. Murph inspires all the staff around him to be the best they can every day, and to me that’s what makes him so special and a great leader. From all the folks who truly appreciate what you do everyday, we cheers you this sunset. Please join me in, “Thank you Mike Murphy!!!” @newenglandpga @negolfsupers @brooklinerec

Today the Grounds team finished a major agronomic

Today the Grounds team finished a major agronomic practice to our greens. Last week all the greens were aerated and sanded providing great relief to compaction and heavy play. Today, Superintendent Mike Murphy organized the next phase, verticutting and overseeding of all greens. Here in this photo, Golf Course Craftsman, Tim Crane is verticutting the famous 15th green. Verticutting is really beneficial to improve the lateral growth and encourage a more upright leaf canopy improving the smoothness and roll. After verticutting all greens were overseeding per Murphys recommendation of bent grass. Stay tuned as this fall we are being very proactive with our care for the course! #golf @brooklinerec @negolfsupers @playmassgolf

No filter needed today. Today marked the completio

No filter needed today. Today marked the completion of aerating our greens. We used large tines to allow for as much sand to penetrate the surface of the greens improving the overall health of our putting surface. While golfers may fret over the use of large tines, the weather is absolutely perfect for a quick recovery. Moving forward golfers can expect to see tees and approaches getting punched with sand as well. In addition to aerating the team will be verticuting and overseeding these areas as well. While we were closed, we took the opportunity to prune many trees around the clubhouse and clear brush in certain areas of the course. We thank you for your support and look forward to saying hello next time you’re at the course! #nofilterneeded #golfcourse @negolfsupers @playmassgolf
