Day 1 of maintenance week (2 days). The good health of our greens means we're not going at them too hard. Verticut, procore and a topdress. Weather looks decent so should get it worked in. Tees vertirained, approaches procored last week and the seeding we did bearing fruit. 😎👌🏽

Another day, another @EnglandGolf competition. This time, the Senior Series. Hopefully, they enjoy the course as much as the captains yesterday 💪🏽. (Enjoyed now as I forgot the picture when I shared this post this morning without the picture 🙃)

Couldn't have asked for a better day for the 3" irrigation main to spring a leak 🙄. All sorted to check in the morning 🤞🏽

Proud to host the @EnglandGolf Captains today. Beautiful day for it.

Got to love these spring mornings. Admiring the view of our hard work on the bunkers on our 17th hole, whilst stood next to the bunkers we've done on the 16th, giving the green a little drink as we've been very dry and breezy. If Carslberg did mornings at work....

@samjwardill @Worksopgolfclub That's what I meant 🤣

Made a bit of extra room for my power fade on the 2nd today while the gaffer was off @samjwardill (planned work). Hopefully those teeing off on the 4th can take their hard hats off. @Worksopgolfclub

What we're dealing with and what we're trying to achieve. Only another 250 yards of this hole left, then onto the remaining 17 holes 😅. Better keep the files and chains in stock @samjwardill @Worksopgolfclub

Spent the day at @MoortownGC on the cutting unit setup and sharpening techniques course provided by @BernhardAcademy on Tuesday. Well worth doing, learnt a lot, staff were great and got a free lunch. Only downside, our shed is crap in comparison to the one up here, some setup 👌🏾

Lovely little action shot, courtesy of the gaffer, just finishing off set up for the final day of the club champs. Beautiful day for it.

Just about getting the hang of hand mowing, greens looking great for the WGC Open AM AM @Worksopgolfclub
