They were alittle crappy during the cold weather, but getting much better quickly

BRCC yesterday. Greens were fine. A little slower than last year at this time and a few sandy edges but nothing to complain about. Weather was perfect, my driver was not. Had two bad holes.

I think it could be time to start making updates to the greens report in the OP. I'll start with Greystone and Clark...
Greystone has a poa problem, primarily on the front 9. The back 9 has far less of an issue. As long as your line is clear of poa, they're rolling extremely fast.
Clark's greens have gone downhill in a bad way. They're full of poa. They also sometimes are both muddy and dry on the same green, which makes speed control really tough.

We played Fennwood last weekend and it is still some of the best greens in the BR area.
Webb is absolut garbage.

I don’t know how they do it. It’s just a little 9-hole neighborhood course, but they have greens that rival the best courses in the area.
If I could hit a ball straight, I would go there more.

Played copper mill on Saturday, greens were sporty.

Fennwoods greens this weekend hands down better than anything else I've played last 4 months

You need to get out more

Have you ever played there? Their greens are unreal, especially compared to anything else at a similar price point.

Played the Island on Sunday. Greens aren't great right now, a lot of goosegrass that needs to be sprayed. Made putting spotty.

Played thursday at the island, greens have some poa annua on them but other than that the greens rolled good, course is in pretty good shape. need some rain tho, firm fairways, atleast my ball rolls further 
Posted on 3/31/26 at 3:08 pm to Bawpaw
No he hasn't. I play 2x per week and hit 3 to 4x per week
Fennwood has legit greens.
Fairways are worse than my backyard

that's not goose grass there on their greens buddy. its poa and its only kinda bad on a few greens and most people are dealing with it. Greens look and roll fine. nothing kills poa anymore.

Keep in mind that the weather is transitioning to warmer temperatures, and that too the courses are working on the transition of their current conditions. The grass is now growing with more vigor... as too are weeds (i.e. poi anna).
For any experts out there that know about grass turf, they know the cycle that plants go through during this time and thus the proper application of chemicals to boost their health. Great caution is needed, too much or too little and we don't get the desired results we wish for.
Customers are going to have to be patient and let the Superintendent work out his plans. They don't try to peak just yet, they aim more towards the end of April to really nuke the place... and it has a lot to do with nighttime temperatures and daytime temperatures. Plus, just how much rain we are getting.
Meanwhile, we wait and see if things go well. Greens aren't quite there, but as it gets warmer, they will come through. The best advice to be given if you want greens to be your friend... knock it closer to the hole.

Patiently waiting for an 18 hole course to open up somewhere in BR to take the pressure off the other places.

Good post.

Played Webb today and was really disappointed. I don’t think I’ve ever seen greens in such bad condition.
Posted on 4/14/26 at 11:04 am to FieldEngineer
City, Clark, and Webb are rough right now. Santa is marginally better but degrading. I hope the grass turns around soon.
