15th back tee

The new back tee is finally started to take shape, we've pegged it out for height, now is just a case of levelling off. Then once we get the top level we will blend of the sides.

15/2/2012

Busy day at Piperdam, we got the 17th pond sealed again and filled. The back of the 10th green on the collar has also been very soft, we forked holes into the turf and then pushed top dressing into the holes and dressed the whole area. This will hope help to get some moisture away and also give somewhere for the grass roots to grow into.

Ponds

We've started cleaning out the ponds on the course and we are going to fix the overflow on the 16th pond to raise the water level.

Edging, tidying and weeding the bunkers

We've started to get the bunkers prepared for the new season, below is a picture of Blair raking the newly edged bunker and the other is of Gary edging and weeding.

Next phase

The changing room/pro shop re-development is carrying on at a steady pace, we are now in position to lift out the individual sections. As at the end of work today we where over half way removing the sections.

Winter wonderland?!!

Hawthorns

We have planted some young hawthorns along the out of bounds on the left hand side of the the 15th fairway before the corner. There are already a few hawthorns along this line, we have filled in the gaps so eventually it will give a nice uninterrupted feature giving good definition.
