I'm back

I have been on paternity leave for the last couple of weeks after the birth of our son, so apologies for the lack of blog updates. Everything seems to have been ticking along nicely while u have been off thanks to Adam and the team. The snow has gone at last but not too warm. This week we are finishing off markers which are being painted and stained for the coming season. The machinery is still being maintained and progress has been good on cutting the hedges.
We are also starting to tidy areas with mowers to trim the small amount of growth on tees greens and surrounds. Bunkers will also be tidied and edges blown clear of sand splash. 
The new 16th tee has also had it's first cut.
