Yesterday the course was dry (for the current weather pattern), and we raked bunkers with our last demo machine from John Deere, hopefully we can order a new machine in the next week. We have been with out a bunker rake machine for about a year and the condition of the bunkers has declined over this period as we simply do not have the time to hand rake them often enough.

We also continued vertidraining fairways, 17th and 18th completed and half of 10th and 15th, we hoped to continue with this today but unfortunately there was heavy snow and rain fall over night which meant it was impossible to get out on the course.

With the course water logged we worked on making tee markers and hazard posts, serving machines and working through Health and Safety information.

At the end of the day the weather has improved significantly and melted 90% of the snow, however the fast melt has caused water logging. The drains recently installed are working well, so closure will hopefully be short term.
