At the end of another busy week we have been catching up on a few more of the smaller jobs across the course. Over the last 2 days Will has been strimming all the bits around the course that are inaccessible to ride on mowers and areas that are cut at slightly longer heights.
He also edged up all of the brick and stonework around greens and tees. Rich and Scott trimmed around all of the sprinkler heads. Other regular cutting included tees, double cut of fairways, range, surrounds, greens, semi and tee sides.
