Hillsview Golf Course Gearing for Season Opener

Hillsview Golf Course in Pierre is scheduled to open this coming weekend but not without the preparation from the end of last season to the beginning of this one. Bryan Tipton, Golf Course Superintendent says after the season was over last November, the grounds crew went right to work…

He says they began putting in the irrigation this week on the course…

Tipton says they’ll be looking at potentially restricting to cart paths only because of the dry conditions to keep the grass from being worn down and getting the most life and best play out of the course. He says having a wetter winter is better for a golf course at the beginning of the season and coming into 2020 was much easier…

Riverfront Broadcasting Sports will continue with more of Hillsview Golf Course opening for the year on Friday. The driving range will open on Friday with the course opening on Saturday.
