Installing New Tee Plinths

Rough Management.

Frosty this morning so we have been out scarifying the rough with a cut and blow dry in behind !!!!

Grow Covers

We have been out putting grow covers on our two north facing greens which suffer lack of light and air movement through the winter months. To give them a help for the next week or so with temperatures on the rise and daylight hours increasing , were aiming to help these greens catch up with the rest. 

Drainage @ the 3rd

We have been very busy over the last week with drainage works to the hollow in front of the 3rd green . 

We are also taking the opertunity to reshape the green side bunker and the hollow to the rear of the green. 

New Path at the 7th

Irrigation and shaping to the new pathway at the 7th.

Air2G2 Aeration

This week we have Chris Pearson in Aerating the big course greens , the machine has 3 tines whitch penetrate into the soil and then blow a compressed jet of air out of the base of each tine . The compressed air releaves compaction fracturing any compacted layers , allowing roots to go deeper into a healthier oxygenated root zone .
