The winter work program is going well. the 12th bunker just short of the green on the Craighead course being rebuilt
Replacing the old worn out tee sprinkler at the 2nd green tee on the Craighead course, this tee should be re-turfed before Xmas, we have extended the playing area to help cope with play and re-levelled the surface
Cutting the greens to tidy up the surfaces, the cutting heights for our greens are now at 5.5mm to help reduce stress on the plant going through the winter months
The walkway onto our 14th tee on the Balcomie course has been re-turfed and matting laid to help wear and tear on this area
We have extended the matted path going onto our 1st fairway on the Balcomie course to help wear and tear
The fairway bunker on our 1st hole of the Balcomie course has been rebuilt
The left hand side bunker at green 2 of the Balcomie course has been rebuilt
When possible we have been out brushing fairways to help disperse the worm casts
Adverse weather tasks have been to start to wash, rub down and repaint our tee benches over both courses
Both our irrigation systems have been drained down for the winter to stop any pipe, joint or sprinkler damage from frosts
The large greenside bunker on hole 17 of the Craighead course has now been fully rebuilt
The 2nd fairway bunker on the Balcomie course has been rebuilt
The surrounds of the bunker have been reshaped and turfed to fit in
Tees over both courses have been solid tined to a depth of 125mm with a 19mm tine to relieve compaction and aid in drainage and air movement
