ELK DAMAGE AND REPAIR

Elk damage in the morning to hole #5 green.  12 manhours later and the smooth surface is back.  Unfortunately the later into fall we get the less chance the turf has of mending back to health with any subsequent damage.  This was just one green to deal with on a day there was 4 greens that had varying elk traffic damage.  The photo below shows the repaired green and also a photo of hole #1 green a few days later.  All part of golf in the Canadian Rockies.
