20mm of rainfall recorded overnight, taking us to 95mm for July so far. Looking back, this time last year, we'd recorded 1.5mm for the month. Total rain to date last year was 194mm compared to this year's 409mm, only 62.5mm required to match 2022's yearly total @PurdisHeathGolf

An early start for today's Seniors Invitation meant an early finish.
So, a round at a courserse I've never played before, @StClementsGC with some of the @IgcGreenkeepers . A lovely course in great condition, both agronomically & playability! Great work from Graham and his team.

Fantastic effort from the @IgcGreenkeepers team & Peter from @Buryturfcare during renovation week. Solid tines on greens & hollow-coring on Tees, approaches, fairways & semi-rough. 24 hectares in total followed by 2860kg @BarenbrugUK seed blends drilled so far @PurdisHeathGolf.

Heatwave has made things difficult @PurdisHeathGolf With no rainfall all month Heather suffering badly with severe losses. Some areas will need regenerating. Work in our shady polytunnel this week potting fescue and Heather plugs for planting out later in year @Ecology1BIGGA

2/2 @PurdisHeathGolf @IgcGreenkeepers fairway wetting agent and management results showing soil conditions which are accepting any available hydration. Well managed use of the wetting agent programme

[Paul Woodham @WoodhamPW]

1/2 very impressive fairway wetting agent treatment and well timed cultural management results @PurdisHeathGolf @IgcGreenkeepers testing the soils at a time of real heat and dry stress. Treatments are allowing the moisture in and supporting plant health

1st take 😉 @RyanWingateGolf @PurdisHeathGolf
