Courses and Range Closed for October 11

Well, Tropical Storm Priscilla has finally made its way into our area. Fortunately, much of it missed us last night, but that didn’t last long. It’s currently raining and expected to continue over the next few days. With the amount of puddling we’ve already received, the Lakes Course and Range will be closed for the day. However the golf shop is open with a sale further below!

Vistas Course & Overseed Progress

As for the Vistas Course, now approaching two weeks into the overseed process, our main concern is avoiding heavy rainfall that could cause runoff through from the surrounding development. Overall, the overseed is coming along very well. Light rains are actually beneficial, helping deliver atmospheric nutrients into the soil. However, it’s important to remember that this is new grass with shallow root systems. Excessive rain, standing water, or runoff could damage certain areas, lets just hope for a constant drizzle.

Many courses throughout the Valley aren’t as lucky; several just dropped their seed this week, and germination hasn’t yet begun. October overseeding can be unpredictable, last year was too hot, and this year is too wet. Maybe we’re asking a bit too much of Mother Nature!

While golf might be rained out today, the Lakes Golf Shop remains open and fully stocked for our Overseed Sale! Take advantage of these great deals:

Here’s a little insider tip: most of our suppliers have already notified us of price increases ranging from 10–30% on new inventory coming in due to tariffs and higher production costs. That means these sale prices are likely the best you’ll see for a while, so now’s a perfect time to grab some gear before prices rise!
