Courses slightly greening up since the rain last week, cutting over both courses was reduced due to the drought conditions and we focused on hand watering and divoting fairways
We had a swing joint crack under the 14th tee sprinkler on the Craighead course
Swing joint replaced
We have now replaced and added more coastal warning signs on the Balcomie course to make walkers more aware of the dangers with golf being played
our weaker/drier fairways on the Balcomie course have been getting watered with our rain trains at night
The Craighead course greens have had an application of a granular fertiliser
We have installed 2 frames so you can have your bicycles secure while at the Club
Greens being turf ironed then an application of liquid fertiliser to aid in plant health
We continue to cut areas of deep roughs to help pace of play over both courses
The Balcomie greens have been spiked to a depth of 25mm to aid better air and water movement in the top profile
Once greens cut & rolled you can't tell this work has been completed, we try to carry this out monthly during the season
We are constantly checking our moisture levels in our greens over both courses, which in turn helps us use water more efficiently
fairways being divoted on the Balcomie course
Our drier fairways over both courses have been sprayed with a liquid fertiliser and wetting agent to help aid recovery in these drought conditions
