Wednesday - Status Green.

Green's Rolled.

Green's having some plant protection in advance of next week's maintenance.... which will no doubt stress them out.

Approaches trimmed.

2nd Cut of Semi topped.

Tee Banks mown.

Daily Tasks.

Tee signage with hole yardages etc are being gradually removed. Don't panic, they aren't being stolen.... just being sent away to be refurbished as the calibre of the Sleeper the Company used weren't to our standards and are weathering a bit too fast! Frustratingly..... we put these in a lil too well that they need some serious effort breaking the cement around the bases 😆

Yesterday's maintenance practice run to the Practice Green's was a success.... however the sand took over 6hrs to dry before we could sweep it in 🥱 😴

Greens Rolled.

Daily Setup tasks.

Remaining Fairway's Sprayed.

Fertiliser mixing pump failed yesterday, showing how much of a time saver this method has been over the years. Mixing a tank each time takes over 8 hours to spray all the Fairway's, but using our in house made Fertiliser mixer it reduces the job to 5 hours!

Now to repair the pump ready for the next Fairway treatment 🔧

Friday - Status Green, 10th Tee Start & 7th Green on Temp during Bunker Work.

Greens Mown + VL.

Approaches nipped.

Recently Turfed Bunkers needing some water.... even though it was the Wettest Jan & Feb for a very long time!

Fairway's Sprayed with some Fe, N, Mg & Wetter. Through a super wet Winter and lots of play, we have developed more Moss on the Fairway's than normal.... so this mix is the start of trying to clean them out.

Fresh Pin Position's.

Daily Tasks.

Turfing to Bunker on 7th.
