After another long, hard, but successful maintenance week @BulburyWoodsGC. Thought it would be best to bring in an extra pair of hands to help out over the weekend! #startthemearly #footprintsidontmindraking

Can't beat this brush! @BulburyWoodsGC @GreenTekGroup

20 tonne down, only another 50 to go! Then, we can get on with the recovery. Using the Evolution 4-3-4, like in our last few reno's. Followed up with TT All Bent for over seeding. The greens will be back to their best before you know it @BulburyWoodsGC @AgrovistaAMNTY

[Dave Smith @KeepingGreens88]

A bit of a slow start, but maintenance week is well on its way! All push up greens to be cored, followed up with a couple of bigger sets of tines using our new verti-drain and approximately 70 tonne of dressing @BulburyWoodsGC @ListerWilderGC @ReesinkTurfcare

[Dave Smith @KeepingGreens88]

After a very wet start to the season, we're finally starting to see the back of the rain and finally seeing all the hard work is paying off. The course is coming on nicely and the tree work done over the winter is really making the difference!

Time for an evening spray to avoid this heat 🔥 after the greens have had a bit of aeration @BulburyWoodsGC Getting the monthly app of wetting agent down. Been getting great results from these products @dbevanturfie @FescuePete @AgrovistaAMNTY @Aquatrol #revolutionisingthegreens

[Dave Smith @KeepingGreens88]

New Tee markers just arrived, just in time for Captains Day @BulburyWoodsGC Another great product from @bmsproducts finishes off the course furniture nicely 👌 @dbevanturfie @AgrovistaAMNTY

[Dave Smith @KeepingGreens88]

Attraxor still working it's magic @dbevanturfie with a cut, roll and a fresh hole, the greens are in great condition. Running at 10.4 for the seniors open and ready for club champs at the weekend! @BulburyWoodsGC @bmsproducts @BASF_Turf_UK @AgrovistaAMNTY

[Dave Smith @KeepingGreens88]

Attraxor what a total game changer! Really pleased with the results after less than 24 hours @dbevanturfie cut before being sprayed but only been ironed this morning, the greens are running quick and true @AgrovistaAMNTY @BASF_Turf_UK

[Dave Smith @KeepingGreens88]

Another productive week @BulburyWoodsGC drainage on the 13th done @SheltonDrainage, greens sprayed @AgrovistaAMNTY and still had time to get the course into great shape for the weekend!

[Dave Smith @KeepingGreens88]

Great last day installing our new drainage on the 13th, Rootzone down and a final clear up @BulburyWoodsGC amazing effort from the boys and the guys from @SheltonDrainage

[Dave Smith @KeepingGreens88]

Day 2 of drainage on the 13th, nearly all trenched and piped. Ready for stone and pipe @BulburyWoodsGC @SheltonDrainage

[Dave Smith @KeepingGreens88]

Productive first day installing new drainage on our 13th fairway @BulburyWoodsGC with @SheltonDrainage

[Dave Smith @KeepingGreens88]

Great game at the Isle of perbeck GC today. First time on the course and was very impressed with the whole experience. 👌👌👌

[Dave Smith @KeepingGreens88]

That's greens, tees and approaches all sprayed with their monthly application of wetting agent. Tees and approaches with the Aquazorb and the greens with Zipline @BulburyWoodsGC @Aquatrols @AgrovistaAMNTY

[Dave Smith @KeepingGreens88]

@ParkersPitches Yes, have you got any left?

[Dave Smith @KeepingGreens88]

Day 5 of greens reno @BulburyWoodsGC out with some needle tines and a dusting on all the greens. Another great effort as usual from the lads over the past few days!

[Dave Smith @KeepingGreens88]

Day 4 of greens reno. Still a bit of sand to brush in but it doesn't seem to effect the roll of ball!

[Dave Smith @KeepingGreens88]

Day 3 of greens reno. Applied to one of our greens last year with great results. So all our greens are having an application of zeorite this year @BulburyWoodsGC @dbevanturfie @AgrovistaAMNTY

[Dave Smith @KeepingGreens88]

Day 2 of greens reno. The start of our 60 tonne application of sand across our greens! @BulburyWoodsGC
