On the Balcomie course we were busy spiking greens and surrounds to a depth of 1", cutting greens and surrounds, cutting/divoting/bins etc on tees and raking bunkers
Craighead course - finish cutting fairways, vibrate roll greens in afternoon as dry, cutting any semi-rough needing done and cutting/cleaning/raking greenside bunkers and moving tee markers

Yesterday we tried to start our planned aeration work to the Craighead greens which we had to stop with the surfaces being too wet due to the thick harr that we had, but today we had the weather which allowed us to get on with the mini-coring, double verti-cutting, cleaning up, cutting, over seeding, top-dressing then rubbing in and hopefully we will complete this task tomorrow

So glad the Harr cleared up for our Pro-am that we held on the Craighead course yesterday, we had most of the staff work on the Craighead course to set up for the Pro-am - greens turf ironed, holes and flags changed, tees cut and divotted, tees set, surrounds cut, all sprinklers trimmed/cleaned and all bunkers raked, then after break to keep of the course we started to dig out old soak away at our old wash pad area, seed and top-dress drainage lines which we covered with mesh to stop rabbits digging
