On Monday our ALWAYS children had a lovely afternoon at Bolton flat lawn bowling club. They had so much fun and took part in lots of different games 🌟🌟🌟

What’s the worst thing in golf? This guy has nailed it. 🤦🏼‍♂️🤣

@Greenmountgc Take Peter up on the offer. It’s a great machine and I would recommend one to anybody.

Early start to support the greens staff. Lovely morning but still very wet.

[Graham Ellis @Graham2627]

@ChorleyGolfClub Not bad we only managed 32mm

[Graham Ellis @Graham2627]

Come and give it a go this weekend.

[Graham Ellis @Graham2627]

@ChorleyGolfClub Yes it seems like the gods are testing us. But we will get there

[Graham Ellis @Graham2627]

@ChorleyGolfClub It’s way beyond a joke and yet we are still asked why are we not on the greens.

[Chorley Golf Club @ChorleyGolfClub]

March was our least wettest month since June last year. Still 128mm(5") though, 1" above our monthly average.

Last 9 months (July-March) now at 1667mm(65.7"),
considering our ever increasing 12 month Jan-Dec average is now at 46.2" .

Only 84 dry days out of the 275 days.

@ChrisMHarding Well done Chris. Let’s hope we have a dry spell to give you all a rest.

[Graham Ellis @Graham2627]

@manager746741 Looking good

[Graham Ellis @Graham2627]

@HarwoodGCGreens Trouble is you send it to us 😂

[Graham Ellis @Graham2627]

@HindleyHGC Good to know it happens at other courses. I was starting to think it only happened at Breightmet

[Graham Ellis @Graham2627]

@ChorleyGolfClub Really frustrating this constant rain. Just can’t get on will needed jobs.

[Graham Ellis @Graham2627]

@Greenmountgc Every sympathy. Worst winter I can remember.

21/1
Daylight shows the depth the frost is still in the ground. This is the 9th green with about an inch of thaw in tge surface. Other, more sheltered greens is about half this.
This is the critical time when root sheer can happen if played on.

[Graham Ellis @Graham2627]

@PleasingtonGolf @pgcgolf Great to have a team with that commitment. Well done Chris

Every piece of golf course maintenance equipment has a lifespan, but it’s not always easy to explain when the time has come for replacement. Here’s a way to put equipment life into terms most people can understand #GSRrewind 👇
