We have enjoyed another week of fine weather, which has allowed the team to make excellent progress across the courses. Around the Clubhouse, spring landscape trimming is well underway, while The Pines golf course has seen the finishing touches completed in several areas. On The Palms golf course, the native floral displays are currently at their peak, further enhanced by recent applications of organic fertiliser. Taking advantage of this week’s course closure on The Palms golf course, we needle-tined the greens to ease winter compaction and stimulate new root growth as soil temperatures rise. This was followed by a calcium fertiliser treatment to help flush salts from the root zone and strengthen the turf as we head into summer. Next week, our attention will shift to the bunkers on The Pines golf course. Sand depths have not been to the standard we expect, so corrective work has already commenced, with fresh sand added to the greenside bunkers on holes 3 and 5. This process will continue across the course to ensure every bunker is restored to top condition. As always, we ask members and their guests to take extra care on the course while our team is at work in these areas. Your patience is greatly appreciated as we continue to deliver the best possible playing surfaces for all. |
