We have set up our corer with 8mm solid tines to carry out aeration work to the Craighead greens to a depth of 4" then a turf iron with no disturbance to the playing surfaces
The Balcomie course fairways are getting a cross cut to help cut out any nap from the usual direction of cut of 2 halves
The new Craighead starters benches have been painted ready to be installed
With the dry/windy conditions we have been using the irrigation system more which has resulted in the mains pipe at the 8th tee on the Balcomie course springing a leak

Great day to get a little liquid feed out on the Balcomie course greens
Courses starting to dry up a little
Another verti-cut and cut on the Balcomie course tees to help reduce thatch levels etc
The usual Tuesday of collecting balls, cutting, cutting junior greens etc and setting up junior course on the driving range for the junior coaching
Our new benches have arrived for outside our Craighead course starters hut which will be painted and fitted in the next couple of weeks

A view from the putting green at the Clubhouse looking over tee 15 & 18 on the Balcomie course
With the wet weather its just been full cutting of all areas and using the turf iron when possible over both sets of greens to keep pace on the surfaces
Rough management still slowly ongoing on the Craighead course
