New 7th  Bridge

Old and new

The bridge is structurally finished now and just awaiting a permanent surface to go over the stone and hand rails.

Julian top dressing the greens this morning, we aim to get between 100 and 120 tons of sand on the greens this year. Today the 18 greens will have about 12 tons of top dressing applied. This will cause minimal disruption to play as it is immediately brushed in.

Chris verti cutting the greens. This is part of our on going maintenance plan for the greens. Verti Cutting is a process to remove thatch, seed heads and any lateral growth. This is all part of the ongoing summer maintenance.

The Bunker linings are now finished and the bunkers filled with sand, they are now in play so beware!.

 Jules and Chris laying out the bunker mat liner and cutting to shape. The joints were glued with a resin and left 24hrs to set. This is a new product we are trying on 2 bunkers close to Askham bog to try and help the base keep some structure.

Club Captain ready for action in the recent Lord Mayors Day.

Yes, its Pike Hills, not Augusta.

The is George putting some fine detail into the greens surround, trimming up around the sprinklers.

Team work at its best!.

Peter is top dressing the greens, this is done each year at this time, with the extra warmth in the air it will give a smoother surface for putting and encourage growth. last week they were over seeded so with a combination of this you will see a great putting surface.

New starter Tyler is now brushing the top dressing in on the greens this morning. He follows Peter round straight away to ensure that the players can play the greens immediately after application of the top dressing.
