Just as the course was improving with the dry weather the rain has set us back once again. The last 24hrs brought us nearly another inch of rain, on top of saturated ground from the rain previously it comes as no surprise that the course is closed once more. We are in a difficult position as greenkeepers due to the time of year and grass growth. We have to continue to cut grass where ground conditions allow, mainly in semi rough areas, tree lines and hand mowing (flymo) otherwise we would be overwhelmed with cutting, we aim to keep the course is the best possible condition whatever the weather.
The 9th fairway waterlogged
All the greenkeepers have been working tremendously hard this week to catch up on lost time.
Scott cutting semi rough
Mark cutting copses
Flymoing bunker faces, Alistair above and Rob below
And I have been cutting tree lines with the deck set at 6 inches. Will has been flymoing the 10/13/14 ditch and divoting the rest of tees
