                                                              Course update April 2010

 

 

We have now overseeded all 20 greens using a disc seeder, it only took just over a day to do them and they were back in play straight away, this method leaves minimal disturbance and the greens should settle back down quickly.

Overseeding greens using a disc seeder

 

We have planted several hundred gorse round the course this Spring, the most noticable area is between 6 and 11. There is now much more emphasis on an accurate drive as there in no longer a safe bail out to the left of these holes.

The wall at the 7th has now been rebulit by the greenstaff and is looking well, it adds a nice feature to the hole. Now that we have some consistent growth the re-aligment is becoming more obvious and the hole seems to be playing as intended
