Overseeding?
Played Mangrove today. Looked like the greens had been overseeded with rye. Don't recall seeing any overseeding last year - our first year here.

"Overseeding" in the golf business, is the term used when the existing grass (Bermuda) is "over seeded" with with another kind of grass (typically Rye), when the Bermuda stops growing in the colder months. After so many years of not overseeding in the winter, if The Villages suddenly made a decision to go back to overseeding, I think the District would have announced it and got some public relations mileage out of the decision. |
Sure *looked* like it

There is absolutely an element of conjecture. Just so much more fun to run it by ToTV than to try to get the info directly from the district - especially if they did it and had some reason not to announce it. :-) Guess I'm also still waiting to learn just what happened last year with Tarpon Boil's greens. Looked a *lot* like greens that had been scalped after dormancy had arrived. |

1. You "stand up" during your swing. 2. You "squat" during your swing (less likely). 3. You "hump the goat", which means you thrust your hips towards the ball on your downswing. Other than correcting which of those (3) possibilities are causing your shanks, there's only one other cure. A Quarter, a Dime & a Penny, in your left front pocket. It helps if the dime is an original, real "silver" dime. Always cures the shanks. [& I've seen some of the finer, "brighter" green grass sprouts, that look suspiciously like rye grass. Just a guess, but I suspect it's coming in on mowing equipment or some such source as that.] |

Recent excellent lesson with PGApromike found me some means for more consistently preventing the open club face at contact that wants to sneak in. My mis-application of those seems to have been the proximate cause of those recent "troubles". Modifying some "feels" has things looking up. . . |
