Scot's Day

The height of the greens has been lowered to 3.5mm just in time for Scotsman's Day. Over 220 are in the field and everyone is looking forward to a fanatstic day. Many thanks must go to Jim and  Jill Hoy for the work they put in every year to ensure that the day goes smoothly.

Greens Renovation

A second top dressing of sand was completed on the greens this week. Our own sand spreader broke down so a demo model was used to finish the job. The demo was was like a Rolls Royce in comparison and completed the job is less than half the time and with 3 less staff.

The greens were mowed this morning at about 11.00 am at 5mm. The are looking smooth and will be done a couple more times at 5 mm before lowering ( if all goes OK ) to 4mm next Saturday.

The turfing on the first near the new concrete pathway was completed today. The McLeod Son's did a great job putting it down and then secured  it down with over 600large wire pins.

Greens Renovation

The greens renovation is going well, everything is on track to be completed today. The green staff advise everything went on schedule.

The borrowed scrafiyer, blower and coring machine made the job go very smoothly and we thank all the people concerned.

We would also like to thank the McLeod volunteers who have done a great job pitching in where needed.

This reno has been a great team effort, well done to all.

We are looking forward to receiving some steady rain over the next week to speed up the recovery recovery time.
