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. 馃槑馃憣馃徑

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....

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 馃槄. 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 馃憣馃従
