Almost that time of year where we wait for 🎅 to come down the chimney 🍺 🥃😜. I want to thank the lads and artisans for producing the goods around the horrid weather for what seems like all year ⛳️ ☔️ 🫣. I wish everyone @PhoenixGolfClub and my @X colleagues a merry Christmas.
Finally dry enough (just) for one day….one day only, for a clean up operation before the winds and rain come back. Cutting the wheat field too where possible too @PhoenixGolfClub 🌾🫣😂
Air2g2 on the greens today then onto the football. Will help them drain, break any compaction layers and get those roots a little deeper. Just need the weather to play ball and rest of the course to dry up now @PhoenixGolfClub 🙏
Greens doing great with elicitors only so far, especially after this last week or so 🦠. Mineralisation has given them a green up and sparked growth. Cover plots are back and waiting for products, this years special…Si and chitosan. #disease#autumn
Bents increasing in the sward and loving a verticut followed by 1.18kg/m2 sanding and sarrels over the top. Tomorrow will be a spray of 20/20/30 with influxer excel to keep disease pressure down and elicit some defence. #turflife#greenkeeping@Nathan_Scarff90 @HeadlandAlex
Great day @PhoenixGolfClub well done to David Thickett and Benjamin Heap from @BirleyWoodGC for winning. Thanks to @PhoenixGolfClub for hosting us, thanks to The Pro Shop, Catering Staff for a warm welcome and well done to The Greenkeepers. You can still book for SUMA 7
Lads and artisans done amazing again this week, a comp most days and two opens to work round has been tough with staff holidays too. But kudos to them all, they all achieved the best course we could every day for all events @PhoenixGolfClub 🙂👏. #turflife#greenkeeping
Well that’s about all we can do in prep on outfield areas ready for our 2nd open of the week. All about the finesse on the dance floors tomorrow ⛳️ @PhoenixGolfClub
Timely operation after the amount of rain we’ve had this July. 10mm solids, sarrels and 1.17kg/m2 sand. Biology and food to be sprayed tomorrow @PhoenixGolfClub
Spray of Amm sulphate and urea on the approaches this morning @PhoenixGolfClub before the mid week comp. Should help to shift some red thread after/during the humidity and rains. Luckily pretty much all I’m seeing disease wise atm…touch 🪵🙏. #turflife#weather#perfectstorm
Doing our best for a full set up this morning and clean the weekend debris 💨 before the ladies open. Amazon and a rake out to clean what we can before tee off, but not what you want on a Monday open set up @PhoenixGolfClub 🫣 #turflife
Easing off the greens and giving them some love for a few days after hitting them hard for captains day, granular will help with anthracnose pressure…only a few days going easy though before we hit them hard again for club champs @PhoenixGolfClub @HeadlandAlex 💪
