Tip from the Pro
Practicing excellence in golf course maintenance includes the aeration process. It is a necessity in overall health of the greens. This makes putting a bit "bumpy" for a short time as the greens heal. Our best recommendation if playing a course following aeration.
-Bring your patience to the golf course - bumpy greens make putting less precise
- Use a different, older putter, as playing aerated greens can be tough on equipment
-Understand the greens will play slower than normal, a heavier putter is helpful
It is also helpful to spend a little extra time on the practice green after greens aeration. Here's to excellent playing conditions!
From the Trophy Room
Duck Confit
6 duck legs
3 oz salt
2 oz brown sugar
1T ground bay leaf
2t thyme leaves
1.5T minced garlic
10 black peppercorns
2t chopped rosemary
72 fl oz duck fat
1) Mix the salt, sugar bay leaf, garlic, peppercorns & rosemary together.
2) Trim excess fat off of the duck legs. Rub cure mixture on the duck legs and then place in a stainless steel pan & press with a weight. Refrigerate for 48 hours.
3) Rinse the duck legs and pat them dry with a towel.
4) Bring the duck fat to a simmer then add the duck legs - simmer for 3 hours or until the leg meat is tender and pulled off the leg easily.
5) Allow the duck to cool slightly and remove the meat from the bone and rough chop it. Place the meat in mason jars and cover the meat with just enough fat to completely cover it.
Refrigerate for up to six months.
From The Course Superintendent
The golfing season continues here at Old Kinderhook and brings us to the conclusion of fall green aeration. The warm temperatures have helped with the recovery of the greens following this process. The warm temp allowed us to aerate the green surrounds as well. We are in the midst of select tree removal around some of the greens. This will allow more sunlight and significantly improve the health of the grass. We strive to continually improve golf course conditions that our members and visitors enjoy every year.
From the Sales Team
Do you have friends or family that would make great neighbors for our community? Plant the seed about home ownership and it could pay off for you! We offer a referral program for Old Kinderhook homeowners - here's how it works: Give a member of the Sales Team the name of potential buyers of a Developer home or lot and we'll take it from there. If that person purchases a property, upon closing, the referring homeowner will receive $1,000 in gift cards. You can contribute to the success of Old Kinderhook and our continued growth. It's that simple, just ask Ron & Susie Martin!
