Mowing the grass, raking bunkers, filling divots, aerating turf, spreading fertilizer – the list never ends. Then, during fall’s annual overseed, the agronomy team chops the summer grass down to the dirt and re-seeds both golf course with winter grass to provide ideal year-round conditions.
Cart Paths Only
Golf staff will inform guests when cart-path-only policy is in place, and rest assured the agronomy team will do its best to get the golf course ready for play – including for golf cart traffic – as soon as conditions allow.
Otherwise, please drive 90 degrees from the cart path to your ball.

Agronomy Team
We caught up with Grayhawk Golf Club’s Director of Agronomy Ernie Pock – a third-generation, Arizona superintendent – along with the team that makes it happen during “Thank a Golf Course Superintendent Day.” And Walter Cronkite Sports Network dropped by for an interview to get a behind-the-scenes look at the operation responsible for the spectacular conditions during the NCAA Men’s and Women’s Golf Championship, held 2021-2023.
