Greenkeeping Autumn Update

Well it's been a very wet summer with over 120mm of rain in August alone. The course has held up well with very few disease occurrences and the greens have drained very well throughout the heaviest of rain showers.

Members will have noticed the construction works in the field behind the 16th green . Several solar panels are being erected and should be completed by the beginning of October. There will be a new cable trench from the panels to the shed on the 16th, the trench will run in the rough only between 13 and 16. I am looking to bring the old cable trenches into play at the same time.

I am often asked at this time of year what my winter projects are, I have a few ideas but no firm plans are in place although I will be removing the tree guards from most of the new trees and filling in some of the pot holes around the paths very soon.

If you have any questions about the work on the golf course then please feel free to approach and ask me.
