Secondary drainage works @The_Wisley in full force this week, some very challenging ground, but we're making progress. 200mm of sand at 1m spaces, will make a big difference going through the wet season. #imants #topdrain #drainage #secondarydrainage

It was all smiles out there this afternoon as we showcase some of our young greenskeeping talent and future industry stars! We have Catherine Omollo all the way from Kenya as one of our sponsored recruits, throwing down some lasers on the new putting green approach. Josh Earl (Early Man), was equally impressive on the putting green with some of the longest lines you will see on a putting surface! while young Josh Porter (The Athlete) waged war on the rye grass surrounds. We’re impressed with how far they’ve come, thanks to their dedication, passion and positive approach to the job coupled with the support of their teams. The futures bright and it’s only Monday?!

After yesterday’s success with 16mm ID hollows on tees, here’s the @baronessuk FS900 clearing moist 8mm ID hollow cores on greens. At a time when labour is hard to find, this will be a winner! Thanks to @turfleethire 👌
