Course Conditions

Course Report

February 2010

The course has recovered very well after the snow and ice, and is in good condition with the greens playing quite quickly. The next visible work will be the vertidraining over nearly all areas of the course.

Work on the practice ground refurbishment progressed quickly and was finished on the 4th February. It is hoped that all members and visitors will hit all their practice shots from the new mats and not use the grass areas around the tees to hit down the range.

Apologies for the putting green being closed for most of January, but this has been deemed necessary as it has been very wet, and it was essential to ensure it is in good condition for the summer season. It is hoped to reopen the facility shortly.

The six existing mats have been removed and replaced with Huxley artificial turf, in two long mats, with a path at the back of the mat, and then a small chain link fence. Huxley turf will allow the use of tee pegs and therefore all clubs can be used from these mats.
