New irrigation system update

 The new irrigation system install for the Balcomie course is going really well and on schedule, with most of the 90mm mains line installed so far, the pipework comes in 100m lengths at at these points the pipework will be fusion welded to the next stretch of pipework 
 Very little disturbance after the mole plough has laid the pipe and cable to a depth of 600mm cover
 The new pump-house is nearing completion which will feed both courses irrigation systems
 Valve box being installed rear of the 12th green

 The new upgraded electric supply to the Pump-house is now installed which will also serve for the electric car charging points and future development of our driving range
 We have been out slit tining our Craighead course fairways again to 5" to relieve compaction and help surface drainage
 The 10th fairway bunker on the Balcomie course was rebuilt


 Adverse weather jobs has been to cut back/trim gorse at the rear of the 13th hole on the Balcomie course and along the roadside to the Greenkeeping shed at hole 11 on the Craighead course
 We have added new practise mats, ball trays and inserted new wood frame at our driving range tee as this was in need of tidying up and the existing mat surface is past it's best
