Busy couple of days installing primary drainage to the worst areas of the course prior to secondary drainage with our 3 tonne gravel bander. Big thanks to John and Paul from shelton drainage for their help and expertise in far from ideal conditions we got the job done πŸ‘πŸ»

Excellent results from phase 1 of drainage project. Outlet’s running well from the primary drainage installed last week! This will be hugely increased when the secondary drainage is added with the gravel bander at 1 meter spacing across the whole fairway areas πŸ‘ŒπŸ»

These ditches, approximately 600mm deep, normally are dry or in wet conditions carry a trickle of water in them! It’s extremely wet out there!

Demo of a GPS robotic mower. Trying it on fairways, definitely wouldn’t get a conventional fairway mower out in current ground conditions…. Food for thought πŸ’­ πŸ’­

Apologies not posted for a while, so will update you. Alongside routine course maintenance the team have been busy with a few projects. 5th tee path revamp using Rite-Pave reinforcement system to stabilise the surface.
