With the wet weather this week we decided to tackle a long overdue project of the overgrown bushes behind the 16th green and 17th tee. 🌳 Cameron one of our Deputy Head Greenkeepers has lead and overseen this project this week and the team have done a great job so far! Horsforth Golf Club

This time of year is great for staff training and development! This morning Chris has been showing Dan the best ways of changing holes in these wet conditions. Dan joined us last year and is experiencing his first winter. As a team we are always learning from each other Horsforth Golf Club

After yesterday’s torrential downpour our bunkers have performed exceptionally well. No standing water this morning, minimal wash downs and straight back into play today. Bunker Mat and China Clay proving to be a great investment Whitemoss Eco - Innovative Golf Course Solutions. Horsforth Golf Club

Great to see our newly installed drainage working a treat yesterday after the snow and heavy rain. These two greens would have been underwater and saturated for days. They are now two of the driest greens on the course. Great job by all involved. Horsforth Golf Club CCGolfscapes

The recent warm weather has been much appreciated, however soil temperatures have yet to rise a great deal! 🥶 7.8 degrees was about as good as it got today when carrying out some readings 🌱 Plenty more warmth required to help the plant growth!! ☀️
