More data gathering today at Elgin Golf Club and Maverston Golf Club. Both courses in great shape going into the new season. The change in weather is certainly welcome with some good temperatures to come this weekend.

Another visit to the club to gather more data from the fairways that are now fully mown with robotic mowers. This work is being done for Strathbogie Scotland as part of their research into how this type of mowing regime will affect turf surfaces going forward. I feel this type of installation is going to become a lot more common in the next few years with fuel and machinery costs rising out of control. The overall improvement in presentation of the fairways and semi rough at Duff house is remarkable in such a short time with no detrimental effects seen on turf performance or quality.

Always good to be back in the homeland. A bit of down time and a bit of work over the weekend. Data visit for Ross Macrae on three of his greens. Excellent results gathered overall with firm dry turf conditions seen on the greens. Lunch in the new clubhouse at Royal Dornoch was very nice as well.

Early morning visit to see Chris Lamb to gather data from his greens on the Hawkshill and Swailend courses. Bit misty and cold for a start but it cleared up nicely later on. Strange weather at the moment with soil temperatures still low despite some strong sunshine. Great set of results gathered from both courses with firm dry surfaces overall with a strong cover of bent grass on all greens. Need some good night time temperatures to warm up the soil.

First data capture visit for Phil Watson since he started his new role there as course manager. Gathering the data will allow Phil to make informed decisions on how he manages his greens going forward. Plenty for him to get his teeth into with greens management but already he has put his stamp on the golf course raising presentation levels on all areas. Great work Phil by you and your staff.

First visit to Kingsknowe golf club to gather data for Gary Rodger. Cracking golf course with great views over the city. Course is in great shape considering it’s still only March with greens surfaces in particular very good. Progress being seen all over the golf course after a busy winter period for the staff.

Lovely morning to collect more data for Marc Lawrence. The course has come through the winter very well with all surfaces dry and firming up nicely for the coming season. An excellent set of results were gathered with strong healthy turf on all greens.

Spring renovations continue after the recent solid tining and application of 3 ton of sand today I applied 60 kgs of invigorater plus to push new growth through the sand layer and improve surface smoothness before the green opens in 5 weeks time. Primed the irrigation system to make sure it is all ok for the next few months.

Cut and a spray on the Balgownie green this morning. Triple concentrate seaweed, flow smart wetter and fielder green FE a great mix to take the greens through the winter.
Similar spray on the green at Inverurie and also 4 bags of lawn sand to check back some moss. This green suffered badly last year from dry patch and is still a bit thin in places but recovery signs are good already. Spring renovations to come in early March.
