Fairway work, Bunkers and 2nd hole update










Hi Everyone,



I just wanted to do a quick blog with some updates from the course. I have done a quick Vlog covering the 2nd hole, fairways and bunkers.

The fairways, tees, aprons and surrounds have all been hollow cored. The pictures above show just how dry it was until the 40mm of rain over the weekend.

Over seeding fairways with Dwarf rye and Fescue has been started. We have had to stop while the seeder is repaired. This will be finished next week
Other news
The dark mornings are making course set up harder for the team. The first few holes are being set up under lights. Please be aware the team are trying there best to stay ahead but set up takes longer under torch light.

2nd hole drainage added to help water shed quicker. James Ferris our new greenkeeper, getting stuck in on his first day.
The blowers and Trilo (big hoover) are now out and will be a common site in the coming months
The team have sanded all the new bunkers (more on the bunker project to come) and are now re visiting the first and second phase bunkers to check and add sand
