GOLF COURSE UPDATE 9/28/25

 


    What an incredible stretch of weather we’ve had since early August! Pine Hollow has enjoyed some of the best golf conditions in recent memory, and it has been a true pleasure seeing so many of you out on the course taking advantage of it. Adding to the excitement, it was Ryder Cup week here on Long Island, a truly special moment for golf in our area. I hope many of you were able to experience this world-class event—it was a reminder of how vibrant and inspiring the game can be, especially so close to home.

Our Green Team delivered one of the strongest late-summer finishes I’ve experienced in my time here. The crew worked tirelessly—hand-watering, mowing, and maintaining every detail of the property—during what was also one of the busiest stretches we’ve had in years.

We started September with a great turnout for the Team Cup Tournament, then turned right around to host the First Annual Vanderbilt Two-Day Member Guest. I couldn’t have been more proud of how the course presented: firm fairways, tournament-quality greens, and roughs that challenged players of all levels. The feedback was overwhelmingly positive, and the appreciation expressed for both the golf course and the club as a whole was truly rewarding.

A heartfelt thank you to all who participated—you make these events special. They are only as good as the people who come together to enjoy them, and Pine Hollow continues to shine because of your enthusiasm and support.

Looking ahead to “Golftober,” we have plenty of great golf on deck, starting with the Superintendent’s Revenge. With cooler weather settling in and the seasons changing, conditions will be ideal for memorable fall golf.

Please take a look at the schedules below for upcoming aeration, project work, and course updates. We are excited to finish the season strong, continue building momentum for 2026, and, as always, we deeply appreciate your support.

Yours For Better Turf,

Brent Peveich, GCS

GREEN DEPARTMENT UPDATE 9/1/25

 


As we move into one of the most beautiful times of the year at Pine Hollow, I want to take a moment to reflect on the incredible journey this season has been. This summer brought multiple heat waves and extended periods without rain, yet our team rose to the challenge. Thanks to their dedication, hard work, and relentless effort, the golf course not only endured but thrived under the most demanding conditions.

This season also delivered one of the most memorable Club Championships in my twelve seasons at Pine Hollow—a true showcase of sportsmanship, skill, and camaraderie. I am deeply grateful to be part of this family and to share in moments like these with all of you. Congratulations to all our Champions but especially to Phil Gutterman and his incredible accomplishment of raising the trophy for his 22nd time here at Pine Hollow.

Now, as the temperatures cool and the leaves begin to turn, fall golf will soon be upon us. The course is in excellent shape and ready for a season filled with crisp mornings and a golf course prepared to have an all-time finish to what has already been a fantastic year.

Here’s what’s ahead:

  • Team Cup – Our traditional start to the fall golf season with members teaming up to compete for this year’s title.

  • Two-Day Member-Guest – Our marquee invitational event, featuring two days of championship golf and Pine Hollow hospitality. This competitive event is exciting on so many levels for us here at the Club and I can already feel the anticipation building from the team to execute a championship caliber golf course.

  • Ryder Cup Week at Bethpage – The world’s spotlight will shine on Long Island, offering a rare opportunity to celebrate the game at its highest level right in our backyard. This is a once in a lifetime event for us here so please take the opportunity to join in.

  • Superintendent’s Revenge – October – A member favorite where our grounds team gets creative with daring pin placements and unexpected challenges. The ideas and collaboration with the Pro Staff and Chef is my favorite part and I'm blessed to have such a great group to think our way thru the Men's Closing Event. 

Fall at Pine Hollow is always a special time—a season when the course shines, and our Club comes together to celebrate theses events, memories, and traditions that mean so much to all of us. The photo above was taken on a morning when I paused to watch the sunrise, and the day just felt different—a reminder to slow down and appreciate where we are. I am truly thankful for the opportunity to be here, caring for this remarkable property, and it’s moments like these that make the hard work of summer all worthwhile. On behalf of the entire Green Department, we look forward to seeing you on the course and sharing in everything the rest of the season has to offer.

Yours For Better Turf,
Brent Peveich, GCS

GREEN DEPARTMENT UPDATE 8/4/25

 


Here we are — Club Championship week at Pine Hollow Club! This is always one of the most exciting times of the year, and after the rollercoaster of weather we've had, it's even more rewarding to say the golf course is prepped and ready for a strong finish to the season.

We began 2025 with a spring filled with below-normal temperatures and above-average rainfall, which transitioned almost immediately into stretches of intense heat and drought. Despite the challenges, our team has worked tirelessly to keep the course healthy, playable, and tournament-ready — and we couldn’t be prouder of the results.

As we look ahead, August marks a turning point in our season. Not only are we wrapping up the peak of tournament play, but we’re also beginning preparations for our final slate of fall events in September and October. At the same time, we’re laying down the foundation for a strong 2026 season, agronomically speaking.

As many of you know from seasons past, late summer is the time we begin restorative work on the course. This includes turf recovery in any stressed areas, aeration across various playing surfaces, and a brief period of easing back on conditioning to allow for healing. By Labor Day Weekend, we’ll be ramping back up to deliver firm, fast conditions heading into the home stretch.

Below this message, you’ll find a breakdown of our upcoming agronomic plans and projects. I believe in sharing the “why” behind our decisions — it’s part of how we continue to care for this great property with the long-term in mind.

On a personal note, I just want to say: this season has been a lot of fun for me and the entire Green Department team. Battling the elements alongside a dedicated staff and an engaged membership is what makes Pine Hollow such a special place. Now, it’s your turn to battle the course — and your fellow competitors — in the remaining rounds of the Club Championship.

Best of luck to all the players!
Thank you for your continued support and belief in our work over the past 11 seasons. We’re proud of what we’ve accomplished and can’t wait to finish strong with some awesome golf still to come.

Aeration
As we move through August, aeration efforts are underway to support long-term turf health and recovery from summer stress:

  • Fairways and High-Impact Areas: Deep-tine aeration will be performed in compacted and poorly draining zones such as low spots and high-traffic areas. This process promotes deeper rooting, improves drainage, and helps turf withstand both drought and saturation cycles. Starting Monday 8/11/25 until completion.

  • Greens: 1/4 needle-tine if weather is too oppressive of 1/4 hollow tine to remove material and open airways for rooting and recovery. Tuesday 8/12/25.

  • Tees, Approach, and Collections: 5/8 Hollow tine aeration will be performed to relieve compaction and improve density in weakened or worn areas. 5/8 Solid tine aeration in approaches, collections, and cleanups. Starting Monday 8/11/25 collections and cleanups with Wednesday 8/13/25 for tees.

  • Roughs: Weak areas in rough will be aerated, slice/seeded, and fertilized to maximize seed catch and restore any tired or toasted areas. As needed throughout August/September current or future areas.

  • Driving Range Tees/Practice Areas: Driving Range Tees will be aerated and slice/seeded on Monday 8/11/25 on both sides and will be closed until Friday 8/29/25 for seed to germinate and recover from a busy teaching and hitting season. Thank you for your understanding.

Our goal is to balance recovery with playability, and every aeration event is thoughtfully scheduled to have minimal disruption while maximizing agronomic benefit.

As we roll into summer, I wanted to take a moment to update you on course conditions, share some important reminders, and wish everyone a safe and enjoyable season here at the club.

The past couple of weeks leading into Member-Guest certainly kept our team on their toes. A severe thunderstorm and microburst left us with significant tree damage, downed power lines, flooded areas of the course, and plenty of debris to clean up. Mother Nature didn’t stop there — we were immediately hit with one of the most intense heat waves this club has experienced in the last decade. Despite the challenges, I’m incredibly proud of how our staff rallied to get the property ready for your play and enjoyment.

With the arrival of summer, I'd like to kindly remind everyone of a few simple golf course etiquette practices that help us keep the course in top condition for all:

 PLEASE LAY DOWN WHEN HOT AFTER USE

  • Please take a moment to repair ball marks on greens. A little effort goes a long way in keeping surfaces smooth and healthy.

  • Rake bunkers after use to ensure consistent playing conditions for your fellow members.

  • Be mindful of rope, stake, and signage, which are in place to guide traffic and protect sensitive areas.

  • Park golf carts on paths where designated, especially around tees and greens, to prevent unnecessary wear.

You may notice our maintenance staff working on the course during your round. While we always try to minimize interference with play, please understand they are out there early and often to provide the best possible conditions for you. A friendly wave and a bit of patience go a long way — we appreciate your cooperation.

Summer is as much about enjoying the club as it is about taking care of yourselves. With the heat sticking around, I encourage everyone to stay hydrated, take advantage of the cooling towel stations placed throughout the course, and don’t forget to enjoy a stop by the pool and Tiki Bar for some well-earned refreshments.

Lastly, we’re all looking forward to the July 4th Fireworks Celebration, which promises to be another fantastic evening at the club. Please remember to stay safe during the festivities. While our team will be out the following morning to clean up, you may still notice some remnants like fireworks debris or minor burn marks in the roughs and bunkers — we appreciate your understanding as we work to restore everything promptly.

Most importantly, have a wonderful holiday and enjoy the summer season. Stay cool, stay safe, and I’ll see you out on the course.

Routine Maintenance:

  • Touch-up raking: Monday & Thursday

  • Full raking: Tuesday, Wednesday, Friday, Saturday & Sunday

  • Sand consistency: Thin areas are topped off as needed; recent sand depth checks and cleanings have been completed

  • Bunker Detail: Bunkers are living features of the golf course—constantly evolving due to raking, wind, moisture levels, turf health, and natural debris like clippings, leaves, and soil. Their edges shift subtly with each weather event and maintenance cycle, and while we work diligently to provide consistent playability, it's important to remember their primary purpose: they are hazards.

    Our goal is always to present the most consistent, fair, and strategic bunkers possible, but perfection is not the intent. These features are meant to challenge players and penalize errant shots. We strive to balance playability with the integrity of what a bunker is meant to be—an obstacle.

    We’re fortunate to have bunkers originally shaped by one of the game’s great minds—Gil Hanse—whose work in the 1990s gave our course its bold, rugged style. His vision gave us bunkers that are not only visually striking, but that carry true strategic weight in your decision-making. Their natural roughness, irregular edges, and evolving contours are part of what makes them so compelling—and so difficult to replicate without years of natural weathering.

    We’ll continue detailing and refining these bunkers throughout the season, always with an eye on preserving their character while enhancing playability where possible.

Topdressing Program

Our biweekly greens topdressing with fine sand is underway to:

  • Smooth and firm surfaces

  • Improve green speed and playability

  • Support root zone health and turf vigor

This program complements our vertical mowing and grooming strategy aimed at top-tier playing conditions.

Clubhouse Grounds

Landscaping is in full swing:

  • All flowers and gardens are planted and thriving

  • Beds are continuously being weeded, mulched, and pruned . Once we finish we lap back around for the refreshest appearance possible. Remember the more rain we get the fast the undesirable plants come back.

  • Ongoing maintenance will ensure pristine presentation and enjoyable views throughout the season


Course Detailing

We're actively refining the course’s presentation by:

  • Cleaning and edging cart paths will continue as time permits. This is one of the hardest projects to continue as summer dictates how much we can accomplish

  • Edging around irrigation heads and valve boxes will continue

  • Sodding and repairing cart path edges and bunker banks will continue as heat and wear impact our appearance

  • Pruning dead material, low branches, and sucker limbs from trees

  • Repairing divots as needed


Racquet Sports Update

Tennis Courts:

  • Watered, rolled, brushed, and lined daily

  • Bi-weekly calcium applications to aid moisture retention and surface consistency

  • All walkways will be cleaned as much as possible. Remember our courts drain to the paths so overnight watering and storms unfortunately wash material where we walk. Please use caution as material build between cleanings can be slick
