Winter annual weed control

We have been busy spraying Fairways and Tee's with Round Up to control winter annuals.  Poa
annua (Annual Bluegrass)  is the main weed we are after.  Poa is a prolific seeder.  If we leave it unchecked we would have Poa slowly taking over our tee's and fairways. All tees will have a green tent to them when we are finished.  We are able to spray Round up on our Zoysia grass because it is dormant.  Round up only works on green leaf tissue.  It has to be absorbed by the leaf to work.

This is shot of Poa on 18 tee
