The course is still under great drought pressure, but is in excellent condition, especially on the greens. Hilmar spends many hours every day making sure that the hand watering and sprinklers are constantly adjusted and checked. The club has its own water well, so we are not running out of water like a number of other golf clubs in the country, but we are aware that Lyngby-Taarb\u00e6k municipality may issue a watering ban. The deer park's deer have also noticed that the grass is greener around the greens and tees. There is an abnormally large amount of deer droppings every night and although the greenkeepers remove them in the morning, there is also a little more during the day.<\/p>\n
We have been working in the bunkers this past week to loosen and redistribute the sand. The bunkers are not lacking sand per se, but several have now become so compact that it feels like you are playing from concrete. The fairways are well burned now. Some grasses are going dormant and waiting for better times, while others are very close to going out if they are not already dead. A final group of grasses is setting seed stands, which is a stress reaction and it is the seed stands that we mow to keep a reasonable presentation. We have stopped using divot pipes for the time being because nothing will germinate in this weather.<\/p>\n
In the coming week, the plan is to aerate our greens. The work will be carried out over a couple of days, starting in the morning. The tumbling will be done right afterwards, so the disruption will be minimal.<\/p>\n
Members and guests have really welcomed our new rules for the use of training balls. There are significantly fewer balls lying around and floating around, which is a nice touch. Thank you very much for your attention and following the new rules.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
