MEN´S CAPTAIN WEEKLY NEWS

Gents,
Last but one Newsletter from me, how time flies. A busy week ahead for lots of reasons.

Seve Trophy Gents this has to be one of the best Trophies I have ever seen.
To see that Seve actually played in the inaugural match, WOW. I believe the original match was between ‘Home’ and ‘Away’ players. It has evolved into the Captains Team against the Ranking
Team. To play in a fixture steeped in such history can only inspire members to play in the Ranking and try to get enough points to get selected for it. To have 2 of the original team members playing today was fantastic, thanks to Serafin Bustamante and Dave Tarpy for
playing and regaling some stories from 2004

My Mantra:-
Pitch marks, Please repair 4 or 5 on every green.

Divots, try and use 4 or 5 sand hoppers every round. Worse case 1 per nine.

Pace of Play – please keep up with the group in front. If you can’t, let the group behind through.

Course work Info from Ben.

  • Greens will be topdressed and aerated with an 8mm tine on Monday this week. We are
    suffering from hydrophobicity caused by the thick organic matter layer, we need to keep this open as much as possible until we get to May and are able to start in dealing with this issue.
  • The driving range tee will receive a light topdress on Tuesday Morning.
  • Greens and tees will be sprayed on Wednesday this week.
  • With it forecast to be a quieter week on the course we will get our focus back on replacing the areas damaged via the chemical wash. These areas will be considered G.U.R (ground under repair) as the works are being completed. we will aim to compete holes 9 and 3 this week.
    We did seed areas on several greens last week also which you will start to see germinate
    towards the end of this week.

The team also started to complete some path tie in works to allow for a smoother transition from mulch to path
