Beautiful Christmas Eve Day ahead. 10am double tee start with hole location 1 and carts are 90 degrees except for hole
#7
which will remain CPO today. Brought little man in to see what he’s made of. Having fun! Enjoy ⛳️
Introducing our new hole signs. With the renovation complete, the old signs with were incorrect. Very proud of our new ones as we put a lot of time, thought, and best economical approach into customizing them. We aim to complete 10 this year and 8 at the beginning of next year.
7:30am single tee off the front with hole 4 and carts are 90 degrees. More importantly, today we are thinking of Assistant Superintendent Josh Gunter and his wife Addrienne as they welcome their first child Keaton to this world. Good luck buddy, golf course is in good hands.
Thank you All. We have an incredibly dedicated team that enjoys working together. Kahite has become a special place to all of us and to be recognized for this award, it is bittersweet. Cheers!
And then there were 89. Dirt from new clubhouse addition has afforded us the opportunity to fill in some unnecessary bunkers. Hole
#5
is a short 100yd par 3. The back bunker is 25FT away, rarely gets play, and is a maintenance nightmare after rain. Stay tuned for more fill-ins.
Since June 6th 2016, I have waited for this day to come.

. Breaking ground Monday morning. Lots of fun and excitement ahead of us!
The power of networking and visiting other facilities at its finest. Stole this idea from Andrew’s team at TN National. It’s absolutely incredible how accurate my riding greens mowers are with mowing cleanup cut this year. The entire Team can execute this difficult task.
It may be April Fools Day, but Kenny is sticking to his word. He came aboard as our assistant/spray tech aerification week of 2017. With over 40 years of golf course experience, he is finally calling it a career as a full-time employee. Thank you for your help and friendship.
Please say thank you to this group when you see them. These are the men, women, and dog that get it done here at Kahite. We have come a long way over the past 3 years and look forward to consistently improving the quality of service and experience here at Kahite.

Today, our Assistant Golf Professional Lucas becomes a Dad. Good Luck buddy, we are thinking about you. 10am single tee off the front with hole location 2 and carts are 90 degrees. Enjoy!
Sometimes you get moments like this and it makes it all worth it. The summer grind is coming to an end. Football time in Tennessee less than a week away.
8:30am single tee off the front with hole location 1 and carts are 90 degrees. Molly’s first day on the job. We are going to learn the radio today watering in wetting agent application on greens. Have fun!
Happy 1st day of Summer/Longest day of the year. 7:30am single tee off the front with hole location 1/carts are 90 degrees except for holes 4 and 7(CPO). Greens are about as healthy as they could possibly be entering the stress period. 1st Segway app. going down today.
Every year the maintenance team looks forward to our holiday meal. This year we are combining both Thanksgiving and Christmas. Food is good, company is even better. Thankful for our team and what we have accomplished this year. Looking forward to what we will accomplish next year
This morning we have an Elite high school event that will be an 8am double tee start. Hole location sheets will be handed out and carts are 90 degrees. Good luck to all players. Play well and have fun!
Today marks exactly 28 days till August 15th. The day when bentgrass managers can say they made it through the season. Greens couldn’t be any better, but now is the time to really focus each day so that the finish line will be even more rewarding. ⛳️

Last year
@TellicoVillage
made it a priority for our golf courses to become Audubon certified to recognize that we care for our environment and will continue to do the right things for it. Finally the certification poster framed on the wall.

Thank you
@aparkhill
@dparkhill37
for inviting Wells and myself to play a round a golf.
@Tanasigolf
looked/ played incredible as always. Its hard to not think about turf constantly this time of year but for a short while, I was able to relax and enjoy the game with a great group.
10am double tee start with hole location 1 and carts are 90 degrees except for holes 7 and 14 which will remain CPO for today. Babysitters could not pull through today-doesn’t like pictures either. Have fun!
Different story from last year. We have made noticeable progress with our Primary Rough. Playing conditions have improved dramatically by keeping the Height of Cut under control We are in prime bermudagrass growing weather and are still ahead of the game. Getting better every day
Spent a quick minute with

Thankful for
@UTTurfWeeds
volunteering his time to come out and investigate our current condition. “Winter injury” is the term. Lots of positives happening below the surface. We are doing the right things, just need a little help from Mother Nature. Traffic control is key.
“Bunkers are the perfect supporting cast for its stars(greens and fairways). They should not overwhelm the golf hole”-
@bergingolf
. Great presentation that Kahite can relate to. Thank you
@HarrellsLLC

@dwilson1907
, and CGCC for having us.
Nice, rainy day gives us an opportunity to start picking away at our Bermuda encroachment. There will not be much grass left from our nursery we built. We will build it again to continue to fight the fight.
It was a good day. We accomplished a lot with the course closed. Thank you
@DryjectTN
for helping us with another fall aerification. Thank you Rose and the Kahite residents for filling course divots. And thank you to the golf maintenance staff for being super stars yet again.
9am LGA9 shotgun with hole location 3 and carts are 90 degrees. Regular play off the front after the tournament. Fall golf has arrived - temperatures have dropped, bermudagrass has come to a hault, and broomsedge has taken off. Have a great day!
There’s too much to do and not enough hours in the day as team keeps busy during the winter. Projects across the property are on going to continue making our place better. Plugwork, mulch/planting around clubhouse, stump grinding, and indoor projects. Waiting for green grass.
Moving greens head closer on Hole 7. Poor irrigation coverage for this 4,000ft2 green. This will allow us to become more uniform throughout instead of over-irrigating the front half of the green where the combination of foot traffic does the most damage peak season.
The great golf course we have and the tournament-like conditions we provide each day, this is disappointing to see from the clientele we work hard for. We protect our environment so please do your part, there’s more than just a golf course out here.
8:30am single tee off the front with hole location 2 and all carts are 90 degrees. The maintenance staff surprised me this morning, they reallocated some lights throughout the shop and installed them outside.

We just got a lot better! Update on our Job Board in our new breakroom. Things are coming along here at Kahite. Crew has been plenty busy all winter and we can not wait for the golf season to start to showcase all our improvements we have been working on throughout the winter.

9am single tee off the front with hole location 3/carts are 90 degrees. We are approaching 1,000 plugs from our in-house built nursery to eliminate Bermuda that has found its way inside our greens. Close to finishing and will focus on edges with the sodcutter afterwards. Enjoy
7:30am single tee off the front with hole location 4 and carts are 90 degrees. Reminder to all homeowners: avoid mowing the natural grass areas between your property and the out of bounds markers that is considered golf course property. Thank you!

Finally! A rain event. 1.5” last night and other than our bunkers, the golf course took it well. 8:15am double tee LGA18 outing with hole location 3 and all carts will remain 90 degrees. We will substitute wet bentgrass for a golf course that desperately needed this rain. Enjoy!
