Here at Malton and norton golf club we have managed to stay relatively dry, when looking at other areas in the uk, especially the south and west. We only had 492mm of rain in 2013 compared to 950mm in 2012. That helped the course stay playable most of the year with only 4 days closed excluding snow days for the entire year. This week with the weather is still mild so we are installing storm drains into the surround and approach of 15th green. These are being connected to existing fairway drainage.
Hopefully these will be finished tomorrow.
This morning the greens were cut again and holes moved. The putting surfaces still looking and playing good for the time of year.
Other jobs have been hand cutting hedges, continuation of machinery service, repairing the practice net and sanding drains and wet areas
