Poa annua in #7 fairway

If you've played the course over the last couple of weeks, you have seen poa annua in various stages of death in our fairways and tees.  There is one fairway, #7 that did not get sprayed with our RoundUp/Preemergent application due to some conflicts with the weather.  #7, especially at the beginning has a large crop of poa that has recently increased in size due to the warmer weather.  I just got out and sprayed it today with another product that is safe to spray as the turf comes out of dormancy.  You should see the effects of this material on the poa over the next 2-3 weeks.

Large spots of poa annua at the beginning of 7 fairway that will soon be turning yellow and dying.
