    On mini verde we just did a double punch with .400 id with pro cores on a 1.33x2.5 and v- cut at .250 below east to west down and back and north to south down and back. With all that we probably displaced maybe 10%. Punching only removed 7.5%. The smaller holes really heal up fast which the golfers like.

    This is 7 days old. I sprayed .3 lbs/N 5 days before. We will also pull cores again mid August but just one direction. We mowed at .115 on day 5,6 and will v cut again tomorrow at 3/16 below and heavy topdress and should be good to go. Sprayed primo yesterday at 2oz/ acre and again Friday to lock them down. This works well for us, we do around 36,000-40 rounds per yr just outside augusta ga.
