Welcome to the Winter 2021 Newsletter! As we continue to navigate through this challenging time, the safety of our customers, staff and community is our top priority. We will continue to follow the guidelines from the City of San Antonio, State of Texas and the CDC. We encourage everyone to wear a mask, practice social distancing, be mindful of all the surfaces you come in contact with, and frequently wash your hands. Should you begin to have any sign of COVID-19 symptoms, we highly encourage you to call the Pro Shop to cancel your tee time. Thank you to our customers for your patience and continued support.

ON THE GREEN WITH BRUCE

The greens were overseeded on October 28th and are well established now. We overseed with Poa trivialis which is in the bluegrass family and is a very fine bladed grass that will tolerate low mowing heights and stay green throughout the winter. It also easily transitions out in the spring time when the bermudagrass resumes growth.

This year we made the decision to overseed all the tees and not just the par threes. This will insure a consistent teeing surface on every hole. We use perennial ryegrass seeded at 400 pounds per acre.

One thing to remember this winter is that if we have a heavy frost on the greens or tees, we will need to delay play until the frost melts on those surfaces. The reason is that when the leaf blade is frosted and frozen, when you step on it or drive a mower across it the cells inside the leaf blade are crushed and then die. Normally the delays are short when they do occur and are worth the wait time to have great playing surfaces.

Thank you for supporting The Quarry Golf Course. We enjoy providing you a great golf course to play.
