April blog update.
April has been a really cool and dry month with a rainfall figure of 16mm,this weather pattern as helped to dry the course up but on the downside not allowed the grass to kick in and it has held back sward density.We need the temperature to rise and a couple of showers to get everything moving

 ( Greenkeepers are rarely happy with the weather!!!!!!!!!)

Mallinsons came in to vertidrain the fairways,We applied a touch of water to the greens to wash the top dressing in.The sprayer was used applying conditioner and wetting agent to the greens which was also washed in.


Below are some pictures of our progress throughout the month.






May programme.

We hope to see a rise in temperature to aid growth, our top dressing applications will continue alongside aeration.Bunkers will be topped up with sand and cutting on all areas will increase.
