I played Evans Prairie yesterday and the smell of what they had recently spread on the course was very noticeable. I have played courses that have spread sewer sludge and I am pretty sure that that is what they have put on the course.

I asked two ambassadors what they had put down and they both said that they did not know?

The last course that I played that had just put it down was so strong that I had to throw away a pair of golf shoes. Evans Prairie had put down a light spread of it and a dryer spread than the last course I played that had used it.

So if you drive in your golf cart down to Brownwood hold your nose when you go by the golf course. But it will be green.

There is a product named Milorganite which I have used and it works very good to produce good plants and it is also sewage sludge. Link below.

Anyone know for sure what they spread at Evans? But my money is on sewer sludge. Sounds like a horse that I want to bet on.
