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.



Welcome to our March blog.


The early part of the month was very wet but we seen a change towards the latter part with a period of dry weather.

The cutting programme around the course was increased and the top dressing on the greens moved in to action. The increase in temperature enabled us to feed the greens and tees.

We aerated the greens with the procore and loosed the bunkers with the tiller.

The greens team worked on a landscape project which prepared an area near the club house to be used for photographs for weddings etc.

The pictures below show the various works.
