Maintenance Week
Mid Summer Maintenance - Week
commencing July 11th 2016
The greens will be aerated with
8mm diameter solid tines to a depth of 100mm before being over-seeded with a
bent/fescue seed mix and finally top dressed with sand.
We plan to apply approximately
20/25 tonnes of top dressing sand to the putting surfaces.
The
main purpose of this maintenance operation is to target and further dilute the
organic matter in the top 20-40mm of the greens surfaces.
Although
the planned aeration will only cause minimal disturbance to the putting
surfaces, there will be some disruption to play during the week whilst this
work is being carried out.

Provided
weather conditions remain favourable we would expect recovery to the putting
surfaces in 7/10 days.
