Tuesday - Status Greener.....

Green's trimmed.

Pins moved but remaining same Colour.

Approaches nipped.

Long overdue Cultural work to the Green's as its been far too hot in recent weeks. Slinging 3t of sand over the 20 Greens we have. This is help dilute the accumulated Thatch in the top of the profile, level out some imperfections, firm the surface..... & obviously more importantly frustrate Golfer! Just kidding.... making Good Greens better!

A matt behind.

Then a splash.

Select Fairway's & area's of Fairway's mown.

Tee's cut.

Car Park works.

Daily Setup tasks.

Left over wetting Agent from an Evening Spray to select Fairway's is being used in Irrigation coverage areas.

Monday -

Greens rolled.

Few more Fairway's Sprayed infront of Irrigation, to continue making progress in recovery now the extreme heat has subsided.... for now. Tee's recovering well 💪

Daily tasks.

Pathway dusting started. A lot later than planned due to several factors.

Few more bunkers getting some edging done to them.

Sunday - Status Green 🥵😬

Green's trimmed no VL.

No hose after yesterday's Wetter application & overheads.... so the Sprayer is out early infront of the Irrigation programme, to help what little water we can get out, get to where it needs to be.

Daily tasks

Practice Ground Ball Collection later on.

Saturday - Status Green, in some spots anyway.

No operation to the Green's, just a day later than needed and planned Spray to the Green's with some Mollasses Sugars, Seaweed, Block co-polymer Wetting Agent & Penetrant Wetter too!

Perfect morning to fly round early doors with some overheads right behind to get the application off the leaf.

6 degree drop today from yesterday to give this application a chance to make a real difference before even more warm dry days are with us.

Hose on the area's that have been and are behind.

Daily Task's.

Practice Ground Ball Collection later on.

Friday - Men's Invitational.

Green's trimmed.

Fresh pin position's.

Approaches nipped.

Hose on the hot spots.

Tee's trimmed.

2nd cut of Semi topped where needed.

Daily tasks

Thursday - Practice Ground Closed 12-2 for Maintenance.

No operation to Green's this morning after yesterday's Irrigation breakdown, just some hoses.

Managed to get water pressure back yesterday afternoon, after a string of leaks. The system has been running flat out the last few weeks with a few hiccups, but ran without a blip last night 💪

No rain for 35 days, but overall the Course is dealing with it well but is certainly parched! March, April & May well below average with June around average but only with heavy downpours in the first 11 days.

Tee Banks topped where needed.

Greensides getting any stalks flicked with the Strimmer.

Daily tasks.

Some posts and rope back out here.... damage on a lot of the struggling Tee's from players walking over parched Tee tops... lazy 😒
