We reached the time of year when the course really comes to life and also when all the wildlife is at it's most prolific. In this months update, we will take a look at the interesting things going on around the course at Hunley and in the greenkeeping department.

Finally April saw a change in the weather,  although the first two weeks still carried on wet and cold with nearly 4 inches of rain falling. The second part of the month was much improved with dry and warm weather dominating.  We are not the only ones grateful for the improved weather either, with all the many species of wildlife at Hunley much happier and more active.

It’s hard to remember a winter that has been as severe as this one. Over the last 23 weeks there have been only 19 dry days, with only 8 of those getting above 3 degrees celsius.

February has been a continuation of this winters trend of weather patterns. Cold spells followed by wet spells followed by cold spells have really tested our resolve as a greenkeeping team.

January has been a difficult month again. 25 out of the 31 days were wet days which included snow and ice, making life tough going all the way through.

Happy new year to you all! 2017 has been an eventful year and as we move into 2018 there is plenty to be excited about and look forward to.

November has been a very difficult month as we have endured some terrible weather systems throughout. The header image is on the last day of the month and pretty much sums up the way things have been, starting badly and then going down hill.
