The first 3 months...

Just a quick note on the blog to say a big thank you to everyone at the golf club who has facilitated with my induction period.

The Board of Directors, Captain, Vice Captain, Greens Committee, Freddy, Ryan and, of course, the playing members, have all been a great assistance in helping me to learn the ropes!

Understandably, the greens are not yet peaking due to the hollow coring and top dressing over the last few weeks. 

However, they are getting there and will start to push on with an application of fertiliser. They have remained dry, firm and free draining though and that is massively encouraging to me as it is important for golfers to play on dry greens that stand up to inclement weather.

I hope that all the members agree that course conditioning is improving with time. Thankfully, next week will be the last 4 day week for some time. Myself & Ryan cannot wait for that so that we can have some continuity to our work schedule!!!

We continue to enjoy our work and strive to provide areas of improvement with each passing week of work. We welcome any feedback, through Freddy or via the Greens Committee. 

I hope to post updates on the 7th path completion within the next few weeks. Have a great bank holiday weekend and enjoy your golf!
