@lukejenkins Yup bloody depressing isn't it?! Thought we were starting to dry down this week then another 8mm out of nowhere yesterday...terrific

[Nick Dowe @NickDowe]

@cbgcgreens Looks good guys. Which contractor did you use out of interest? Something we're looking into at Poult Wood.

@GlennKirby @gppLoakes @SyngentaTurfUK @ICL_Turf @BIGGALtd TN11 9QR - Kent. Quite a lot present on our sandbased greens this summer. None on the clay push up greens.

Great set up today from the guys for the Club Champs at Poult Wood Golf Course @tmactiveleisure. Really happy with how the course has continued to improve throughout the season.

@gcemlgc @gregevansmg @USGA Cheers Lee.
Two of the greens we've thinned out the surrounds on this winter have stayed on main greens, compared to last winter when they lived on temps for 4 months. Hopefully some of the golfers are starting to understand the benefit!

[Nick Dowe @NickDowe]

@gregevansmg @USGA @RyanNoades Agreed!

@The_1_PK @UKWeatherExpert @dartfordgolf Yeah we aren't without our challenges but making small wins day by day! Have a great Xmas. 👍

@The_1_PK @UKWeatherExpert @dartfordgolf This is a great find Paul! I can already see our 'vocal' members expecting the course back open the minute the snow is gone. 🙈

Weather was not kind to us for this project. Glad to get it wrapped up before conditions get even worse. Only one more GUR bunker to address at Poult Wood Golf Course @tmactiveleisure.

@GlennKirby @SyngentaTurfUK @ICL_Turf TN11 9QR - today was the worst day so far. Still not as many as last year...yet

[Nick Dowe @NickDowe]

@GlennKirby @SyngentaTurfUK @ICL_Turf TN11 9QR. Not many last week, last couple of days there has been a lot more activity.

@andygeorge1984 @Woodbury_Park @WP_Golf @TheClubCompany Thanks Andy!

[Nick Dowe @NickDowe]

@andygeorge1984 @ICL_Turf @WP_Golf @TheClubCompany @REVDAKOTA @ToroGolf @WiedenmannUK Thanks for the response Andy! All the best with your reno's. We ordered one of those Turf Pride core collectors after seeing another chap on Twitter using one...for a small team that we are it is a game changer. 👍

[Nick Dowe @NickDowe]

@CtcCraig @tmactiveleisure Thanks Craig! Small victories but heading in the right direction. Hope you're well.

[Nick Dowe @NickDowe]

Nice to see how some of our worst areas have improved in the last 3/4 months at Poult Wood Golf Course @tmactiveleisure. Plenty of scope for improvement underneath the surface but great to see all the hard work from the team starting to show. 👌

@gcemlgc @tmactiveleisure Cheers Lee!
