Brushing


This week, we have started brushing the tees on the course. The main reasons of this are:

- To disperse any worm casts
- For surface aeration (removal of debris)
- To stand the grass up before we mow the tees to ensure a better cut
- To improve the overall appearance of the tees

We found an old Implement in the yard that consisted of a levelling lute mounted on an A frame. Nick Fletcher and Alan Whitty kindly offered to grind off the levelling lute from the A frame and proceeded to attach a 6 foot brush that we had purchased for £50. Many thanks to Nick and Alan for their help.

Now we have another tool to help us to further refine the playing surfaces on the golf course. Fantastic!!
