23rd bunker now in play

The long running project on the 23rd is one step closer to completion now the new bunker is in play. We edged it and prepared it for play today.

The sand has settled well, however it will remain soft for a while and balls may plug more easily than some of the other bunkers. The drain that was installed into the bunker still remains GUR until it has been top dressed and seeded again.

Today we finished edging the remaining bunkers on the course, finished cutting tees and fairways which were left from yesterday after we had a heavy thunderstorm in the afternoon. We double groomed the greens and cut this morning, this is to remove some of the lateral growth that builds up from the bent grasses in the greens. Grass growth on the course remains vigorous so continual cutting is a priority to keep the appearance of the course at an acceptable level
