Deep Tining walk on and off areas
As you are all aware the
weather this winter has been somewhat inclement, we kept our members and guests
out playing on full greens and tees throughout this period.
With pleasure there’s always
a little pain! We now need to look after all the walk on walk off areas and get
them back in a decent state for that shot that just misses the green. (I know
that one well).
Our plan over the next month or so is to deep tine, dress and apply a granular feed to theses areas, all this work will give the areas
a head start for the season and when we next get some growth. We are using a
19mm time going down between 150 & 200mm. We will be using a sports grade
grit sand dressed over the tine holes (WE WILL NOT FILL THE HOLES)
The main reason for deep
tining is to relieve compaction and to help move water from the surface. We hope
this will not inconvenience you too much.
