Palmilla Golf Club has 27-holes, which results in a consistent 18-holes of great conditioned golf. We keep each 9 hole course closed for 3 weeks, until the greens have had time to heal before it reopens and another 9 is closed for aerification.


What is aerification?
Aerification of the greens, tees and fairways occurs during the summer months. To aerify, a piece of machinery built for the task cores the ground, punches holes and removes the dirt in a certain pattern.

This is done to loosen soil that has been compacted by golfers walking over it, opening up growing room for the roots and increasing oxygen to the roots. Recovery usually takes a few days to a week for the holes to fill in and grow over.

Below is the rotation and dates of which courses will be closed.  Please keep in mind that these could change without notice due to recovery times or other issues that may arise during this maintenance.

 

 

 

Arroyo Course: October 17th - November 6th, 2011

Ocean Course: September 6th - September 25th, 2011

Mountain Course: September 26th - October 16th, 2011

Dates may change without notice due to recovery times or weather disruptions, please check with the Golf Shop prior to your tee time for exact course closures.

If you have any questions please do not hesitate to contact me or the Golf Shop.
