October update

Good afternoon all just a quick update on what’s been happening around the course lately .

GREENS

Greens have came on since our maintenance week and are recovering well. We have applied 60 ton of top dressing to them in the last 3 weeks along with ultra fine dwarf rye seed. Fusarium has shown on some greens but has been sprayed to prevent further greens being affected . We are cutting at 5mm and cutting every other day . 8 greens that were cored have been giving a granular fertiliser strengthen them up for going into the winter. The greens will be verti drained in the coming weeks which will help surface water through the profile.

FAIRWAYS & ROUGH

We are still cutting fairways and rough weekly although we see the grass slowing down with the colder mornings . Fairways height of cut will be brought up to 15mm shortly and rough will continue to be cut at inch and three quarter. Fairways will be verti drained through the winter to relief compaction and help drainage .

GENERAL

As the leaves start to fall we begin blowing our fairways and rough with our new blower, this for me is the worst part of autumn by far.
Traffic management will begin to go out as the wetter days approach , can we please ask that you follow these areas as it benefits the course greatly coming into the spring.
Tee mats will go out shortly with par 3s being first followed by par 4s and 5s. The mats are vital to the protection of the tees , please don’t tee up on the grass at the back of them.
We have never enforced the use of fairway mats but would like to encourage players to do so during the winter .

Course update

We have been busy this week getting on top of cutting with maintenance week starting Monday . All the greens have been scarified this week allowing us to go begin hollow coring and solid tining on Monday . We have tailored our works to suit each greens needs. Some of the wetter greens will have extraction followed by top dressing and overseeding. Dryer greens will have a solid tine followed by top dressing and overseeding . The back 9 will be open first thing Monday with front 9 being closed . We plan to get over the back 9 late Monday morning .
Temp greens will be in play for a good few days to allow us to crack on.

Some of you may have noticed some small puncture marks on the greens if you were playing today. A small tractor mounted sarel roller, was used to aerate the greens. It is very light and has almost zero impact on the playing surfaces.
It helps relieve compaction which will help us get more water into the greens. They've been getting baked throughout the day and along with the windy days we've seen them dry out a lot quicker than we can get water onto them.
