Hi guys. Super super busy, we are currently 9mm of rain in 42 days, 4mm of that coming last night.😳 totally unheard of for Maesteg. Only able to get 8.5mm of irrigation a week, some ☔️ coming in tomorrow so sprayer set and wetters at the ready. #unsungheroes Maesteg greens


So I’ve seen a good few posts tottering around the place. Moans and groans that areas of the course are crap bare patches etc. well the drought will certainly not help matters but I can assure you with a certainty this is the real issue. Maesteg greens


Changing course lay out can be a challenge but once you get it right then you just sit back and admire it. Until you’re watching someone top it off the tee that’s when you walk away and admire the view from somewhere else 🤣 Maesteg greens








Well 621mm of rainfall since beginning of January. Course is absolutely soaking still but managed to get on some of the drier tees today. Prepping ready for the season ahead. Greenkeeping is ridiculously hard trust me. 😪 Maesteg greens


So managed to make a start on defining the approaches for the coming season. Beautiful cutting day today but that’s it I’m afraid folks another 10 day rain forecast so may god have mercy on us all. 🙄 #cantcatchabreak Maesteg greens


Been an extremely busy boy. Maesteg greens and myself have been hand cutting all week. Greens, approaches/aprons. 100,000+ steps later it’s starting to look a little like a golf course again ✅



I hope you all enjoyed your day and was lovely to meet you all. Your always welcome up with us Maesteg Golf Club 😎👍🏽👌🏽



Another trip to Wales today, this time playing Maesteg Golf Club for the first time. Blown away by how good the layout was! First-rate presentation, greens were superb! I would highly recommend a game if you're in the area. Thanks to James Matthewman M.G.C 🏴 for helping to organise today!


So glad you enjoyed! We are all very proud of our gem of a course and the work our Greens team do to present it so well. Come back soon! Maesteg greens
