Rough thinning work

Work has started to further thin out the rough areas with the terra rake. We are going over all areas in two directions to rip out dead material from the base of the turf. This will be lifted and dumped in our recycling area. We will shortly go over these areas with the super 500 machine and then spray selected areas to eradicate rough grasses.

3rd Hole Silverburn

The existing bunker positioned below the green on the right side was filled in and re-turfed. This was a very difficult bunker to play from and offered little visually to the hole. A new bunker was dug out and positioned next to the green at the front right corner. Visually it looks much better than the previous one.

Chamoionship Tees

The championship tees at the 7th, 9th and 12th holes were stripped and re- levelled. This work has been carried out in preparation for the British Amateur in 2018.
The 9th tee was re-aligned slightly with the fairway landing area. These are now ready for new turf on Tuesday 24th January.
