The courses are much greener than this time last year when we had the driest Summer in 40 years

 We have replaced all the fairway yardage posts on the Balcomie course to match the Craighead course, the new posts are set in a sleeve with cement round them to always keep them neat and straight

 great definition over both our courses

 We are applying 5 tons of sand to the Craighead course greens ever fortnight to help dilute the thatch levels in the soil profile

 We are trying to turf iron as much as possible behind cutting the greens to help keep pace on the surfaces due to the wet weather and the growth we are having at present

 Our wild flower area on our Driving range to encourage birds, bees and insects is looking really good and will be in flower in the next week or so

 We have tidied up the start of the 8th tee path on the Balcomie course which struggles due to this path being used by the Greenstaff as well as golfers

 We have been testing out new seeders that have the latest technology as we are planning to replace our old seeder next year

Work on the 12th fairway on the Balcomie course continues to help aid recovery from last years droughts

 A lovely rainbow after the heavy showers

 We have applied our monthly application of wetting agent and seaweed to greens over both courses

 Keeping up with our weekly cut and clean of the burn that runs through the Balcomie course at holes 10, 11, 12 & 2nd

 In the afternoons we are trying to catch up with tidying up tee paths

 We have just installed a glass crusher in our Bio mass building to recycling all the glass bottles etc from the Clubhouse into crushed glass so we can spread on our golf courses by either mixing with soils for winter work and mixing in with top-dressings. We will trial this out on certain areas to see if it reduces worms casting on the surfaces as the crushed glass is abrasive

 The finished product

 We are continuously seeding and divoting weak areas on fairways from last years drought
