The course staff are continuing with essential maintenance of the course.  Brian and the team have been aerating the greens to a depth of 7 inches.  This helps to reduce compaction caused by traffic.  It also helps create a firm, smooth putting surface by controlling thatch and promoting healthy turf roots.  The lads have also been cleaning out the drains which cross the 4th / 13th fairways and the ponds on the 15th / 16th fairways.
