Normally in past years, we always performed preventive equipment repairs in the winter. So that when mowing season arrives the equipment could be expected to work Thur out the season with only minor repairs. The last couple of winters that has not happen, due to financial issues. The past week, Alfredo and myself have been working on repairs to equipment. With out this equipment conditions on the course can change rapidly. Bermuda grass growth stops for no one! The rough mower was down for mower deck roller repair, GM72 mower was down for a muffler and belt repair. We also had a problems with two of our utility carts, requiring the rear axles to be repaired. These issues along with limited resources takes away from preparing the course for weekends and special events. So everyone bare with us things will get better shortly.
