Aeration

Happy New Year to all.

What a great past few days of weather we've received with strong sunshine and light seabrezzes. Anyone would think it is September, not January. With these fine days, we have taken the opportunity to aerate the greens using a 3/8 inch solid tyne going down around 5 inches. Once we have finished aerating, we then run the roller over the top which leaves the surface as it was before. This has great benefits for the turf, with increased oxygen and root growth.

We will complete the aeration today, with greens 5 & 6 remaining.
