Week 31 2012 update

Well a good frost this morning, I have not seen one this good for a few years

We finished of the turfing on the 11 th pathway and 5th pathway turf area also behind the 4th tee
We have had a crack at fixing the practice nets hope this lasts if not we will have to try something different in there
In the rough on the left hand side of the 14 th we are putting in some more mounds for rows of trees to protect the houses
The greens have been paced up ready for the pro am on Monday

No sand man working bee this Monday because of the two shotgun starts .. Till next time keep swinging .. Pete
