How are your greens

Ours are fine for the time of year. Soft but in good nick. The only issue is one or two greens that need some sand to bed down. Again that's normal maintenance. Pitch marks aren't too bad and most members seem to be taking care of them. Although that could just be less footwall in winter.

Haven't noticed anything outbreaks of moss/fusariam. Although on a couple of away days I did spot it elsewhere.

Sandy. Had been in excellent condition all winter.

Greens, aprons, fairways all getting the treatment this week.

Our guys got their timing bang on it seems this year. Greens have been in great condition relatively speaking over the winter, even with some of the heavy rain we've had.

Good Greens guy in place, very passionate, not sure we'll manage to hold on to him though.

Sandy mess currently, but were almost summer standard into late December.

Had heard people talking about the changing EU directives and it's impact. Couldn't stop the crows from making worm casts into craters in the fairways, but greens have not been adversely effected so far, the opposite in fact.

We also have a lot of play through the winter and glad the course has been closed when it should be. I'd be one for closing it down every winter for a fortnight to give the ground a proper rest.

Probably impractical as it the two week shutdown was followed by two weeks of frost there'd be bedlam.

Only gripe I have is that we've pole-forked the last two years in weeks of severe frost. Takes the greens ages to come back then. But I guess there's pressure not to do it when greens are good and sufficient daylight has large numbers playing.

I played Rathsallagh the bank holiday and couldnt get over how good the greens were! Seriously not one blemish or pitch mark rolling so true.. Seriously considering joining...

Update. Recently forked and heavily sanded. It'll pay dividends soon enough. A few heavy showers would go down a treat.

Greens are 1st Class. They would generally be their best in winter.
