Wondering if the top inch of soil of the holes could be sprayed with white paint? Would add a classy touch and appearance to the course. David has replied to this via email. Issues with the Member Comments section of the website meant that he wasn’t notified until today 24 August 2022. Apologies

Once again it was nigh on impossible for members to book a slot on the morning of the 10th August, due to the preferential slots given to the Vet’s. This practise is extremely unfair to the vast majority of members who would like a mid week game on a Wednesday morning.

Subject: Stop use of White Tees in Winter Period Message: To assist the recovery of the Competition White Tees I suggest that once all Club Competitions have ceased for the Winter that play is carried out from the Yellow Tees.

Subject: 3rd Tee Message: Now we have a bell on the 1st, can we consider moving the steps by the 1st tee to the 3rd tee, so that we protect players just over the hill. As the tee is below fairway level, the steps will help keep play moving safely. Many thanks, Jim
