Course Update.

Welcome to our May blog.

The soil temperature increased and towards the latter part of the month we had some rainfall. This started to get things moving on the course. We have applied one hundred tonnes of top dressing to the greens since March, leaving us twenty tonnes to deliver between August/September when we overseed.

We've continued with our fortnightly aeration programme with the procore followed up with the monthly application of wetting agent and soil conditioner on the greens. We positioned new tee signs on each hole which look really good. Below are some photographs showing the various works.
