Reshaping of bunkers began this winter ...
SPORTS TURF CONSULTANTS
As with any golf course, bunker maintenance is time consuming but, with only forty-five on this course, they are quite manageable on a day-to-day basis. However, this winter, Mazz and his team have begun a programme of reshaping, taking the opportunity to replace the sand as they go. Other winter work will include tree maintenance and cleaning out the numerous ditches and streams.
With most of the course built on heavy clay, Mazz explained that it is important to keep the soils open and free draining, which is why he calls in Paul to carry out the annual aeration sweep of the course. This religious annual spiking is supplemented by additional aeration work, undertaken by the greenkeeping staff at various times of the year, including fairly extensive work during the spring and autumn renovations. All this is backed up with regular sarrel rolling.
Spring renovations see the greens hollow cored, scarified, sarrel rolled, fertilised, oversown with a fescue bent seed mix and topdressed (around 1 tonne per green).
Tees are treated similarly, with the aim of retaining smooth, free draining playing surfaces.
Throughout the growing season, the ongoing
maintenance regime All lined up with nowhere to go

... but got ‘rained off’
consists of mowing on a daily basis, interspersed with feeding, verticutting and topdressing work on a three to four week cycle.
Autumn renovations are similar to spring but, as Mazz puts it, “carried out a bit more vigorously”.
The course is still very young, and there is plenty for Mazz and his staff to undertake to keep improving both the playing surfaces and the aesthetics to ensure it remains in contention for future PGA tour events.
As for a wish list, Mazz would like the club to invest in new purpose built storage sheds and mess room facilities to replace the temporary metal containers they have at present.
