We now think that the greens are firming up nicely and are rolling well too. The comments from a range of members have been very positive and well received. We have spent many weeks double cutting the greens and they look how we want them too.
Topdressing greens next week will maintain smoothness and ball roll as well as assisting with diluting the thatch layer.
We finally finished spraying weeds on tees & surrounds this week as well as hitting some areas on fairways & roughs.
As important as it is to keep weeds out of key areas, it is also important to remember that spraying weeds en masse can be very costly and unnecessary. I prefer to target the priority areas and leave weeds in out of play areas to remain. As the saying goes "one man's weed is another man's wildflower"!!
Let's hope that this sustained period of dry weather continues (Friday aside!) and that members can continue to enjoy great golf & maintain their sun tan!!
Have a great weekend and enjoy your golf!
