True Links

 With no rain in the last month, both our courses are really drying out and playing like true Links

 We are making sure we keep applying our wetting agent program to make sure we reduce water run off and get the water where we want it in this dry spell

 The last few days we have been out hand watering areas that really struggle or don't have sprinklers etc over both courses

 With the irrigation system running 24/7 just now we are continuing to fire fight issues with our Balcomie course system with old sprinklers and bursts

 Hand watering high spots

 We have been also brushing our greens before cutting to give us a better cut by brushing the grass more upright

 We have been able to keep up with our weekly top-dressing program of sand to the Craighead courses greens with the good dry weather

 That's us at last managed to seed our new short game area green on our Driving range and all the surrounds have been turfed, the next job is too screen sand for the new bunkers over the next few weeks and hopefully have it in play for the end of August weather pending

 Our new irrigation at our short game area will help establish all the areas etc

Short game areas first cut on all the surrounding areas
