About Punch Report & how we get our dates

Punch Report is an independent site. We aren't affiliated with any golf course, management company, or association listed here.

Where the dates come from

Every date comes from a public source, and each course page links to it with the date we last checked. Current sources:

• City of Phoenix golf program: aeration and overseed schedule (PDF). We use it as the primary source for city courses.
• Arizona Golf Association (AZ GOLF) overseed schedule: fall overseed closures for Arizona courses
• Coastal Golfaway's Myrtle Beach aerification list
• Orlando: GolfTroop course maintenance listings and resort course websites
• Coachella Valley: resort and city course websites (PGA WEST, La Quinta Resort, Desert Willow, Indian Wells and others) and Arizona Golf Vacations' 2026 overseed list
• Pinehurst/Sandhills: Pinehurst Resort and The RDUgolf Tour's draft maintenance list. Dates marked "(check)" haven't been confirmed on the course's own site yet.
• Course websites and course staff corrections

What the dates mean

Greens aeration: holes are punched in the greens. Greens are bumpy and slow for about 1 to 3 weeks. Where a source gives a "recovered by" date, we show it as the end date. Overseed: fairways are seeded with winter grass, and the course usually closes or limits play. "Access" (public or private) is shown only where we could verify it. Otherwise it says "not yet verified".

Accuracy & corrections

Courses change schedules for weather and other reasons, and sources can be wrong or out of date. Always confirm with the course before booking. If something is wrong, tell us. We fix corrections within 1 business day and remove any course page on the operator's request.
