We’re over the hump of our Spring Course Aeration Program! ⛳🙌
A huge shout-out to Scott, Gus and our incredible Course Maintenance Team, who have been working tirelessly this week to give the course the spring renovation treatment it deserves.
It’s been a massive week of work across the course, including:
🌱 Greens – verticutting, coring, amendments, topdressing, fertilising and plenty of TLC.
⛳ Fairways – scarifying, mowing, aerating, gypsum application and irrigation.
🏌️ Aprons & Approaches – verticutting, aeration, mowing and topdressing.
🏌️♂️ Tees – verticutting, aeration, mowing, topdressing and fertilising.
🌳 Tree Management – we’ve also taken the opportunity to carry out some tree management along our 6th hole. As you’ll see in some of the attached images, there was substantial rot and trunk degradation in a number of trees, presenting a significant risk. Our arborist strongly advised that they be removed.
And that’s just the short version! 😅
The 10mm of overnight rain gave the team a minor hiccup (as did a couple of machinery failures), but it certainly hasn’t stopped them. They’ve continued pushing ahead and have done an outstanding job getting us through the biggest part of the program.
👏 This is the work that often goes unnoticed by golfers, but it’s absolutely critical to the long-term health, playability and resilience of our course.
We’re pleased to confirm that the course will reopen for play this Friday from 12:30pm. 🎉
The course will take around four weeks to fully recover, but the work being done now will set us up for some fantastic results as we head into spring and beyond.
So, if you see Scott, Gus or any of the team around the course, give them a wave and a big thank you. They’ve put in some serious hours this week, and the results will be well worth it. 👏👏
And don’t forget, we’re still open for lunch & dinner today through Saturday. With arguably one of the best outlooks in town, we’re definitely worth a visit for a bite to eat and a refreshing beverage! 🍽️🍻
Spring is here, and the course is on the way up! 🌱☀️⛳️
