The bottom bend has been realigned and widened to minimise the risks of an adverse camber, and the surface has been levelled
“They are mowing twice a week in the
peak season, though, and there is always plenty to do,” Katie points out. “It is hectic in summer when we race week in, week out, but at least we have some downtime in the winter which allows us to reflect on renovations that need doing, and means that we can undertake major developments without losing meetings.” Machinery is currently under the spotlight with the existing John Deere batwing mower
showing its age. “We need reliability, so we are looking at purchasing a Trimax tractor- mounted mower to take the pressure off the ride-on, especially for areas like the car parks,” says Katie. “We use a number of other pedestrian mowers for lawns and a Kubota ride-on along the rail.” The slitter is prized by many groundsmen, but Andy restricts his use to rainy periods to avoid drying the turf out even more. “We verti-drain at the beginning of the season
and use an Earthquake at the end,” he adds, “but, with as little as 15cm of soil over the underlying rock in places, we can’t go too deep!”
