@stokegreenstaff Railings look fabulous, great job!

42/52 best & worst of Autumn this week, leaf colour continues to impress but the dreaded fusarium has enjoyed a good week with warm damp days. 🤦‍♂️. New in-house constructed railings installed around pro shop. 👌

33/52 after a week of heat the course quickly turning brown 😪. Mowing continues on irrigated areas & plenty of irrigation work & hand watering to try & get things ready for this wknds open. #golf #greenkeeping

Perfect example right now on @DPWorldTour of why range finders should be allowed in Pro Golf 🤷‍♂️

@scully09 @NoContextBrits We’d still get inane comments that a well struck 7 iron from the fairway 🏌️‍♂️ won’t stop on our greens ⛳️ 🤷‍♂️ @stokegreenstaff @StokeRochfordGC

@NoContextBrits That should fill the water butt 👍👍

What are you doing in this situation?

@KP24 You’re wrong, Score Differential is what matters, not Par. Yesterday was -0.9 but you also have a -0.2, -0.4, -2.4, -2.9 & -3.8 from various other courses in your best 8 from 20. THAT is why your index is reducing. All casual rounds, no comps. System is 🆗.

Played my best ever round of golf on West yesterday(-1) and woken up to this handicap today. Flawed system as I’m NOT this type of golfer! Horror system actually!

@stokegreenstaff Absolutely a top team, thanks for all your efforts as always guys. Club champs immediately followed by Midland Youths & Girls champs for another 4 straight days next week in these hot, dry conditions. 🙏🙏

26/52 last Friday pic with this Fri below, the wind has removed any remaining moisture ☀️🤦‍♂️ Irrigation leaks repaired, hand watering continues & lots of detail jobs in prep for club champs wknd. Wind also toppled an old ash, all cleared for wknd. Top Team.💪 #greenkeeping #golf

@stokegreenstaff Course looking and playing better and better every day guys, thanks for all your efforts 👏👏👏

17/52 amazing cowslips, great product applied to green's, TX10, fantastic support from the club with investment in new equipment, thanks Simon @ Doe's. All round a grand week 👌 #greenkeeping #golf #wildflowers

@stokegreenstaff Played today guys, lots of run on the ball, greens remarkably fast, just amazing what a week of sunshine, wind and of course your hard work has done for the course, paths are a massive improvement 👏👏👏👏

10/52 storm drain install worked, dry week👌. Green's solid tined, dressed & brushed. Dry weather allowing a light roll to improve playability for our members & guests. Started toping all paths, levelling off after a lot of winter washout. More 🌞please. #golf #greenkeeping

@stokegreenstaff Let’s hope so, course drying out nicely in the sunshine today

9/52 EAT, SLEEP, GREENKEEP, REPEAT. Almost identical to last week, meadows rake & collection, Verti-drain fairways but both now close to completion 🤞. Installed a storm drain on 7th path, that can only mean there's a run of dry weather on the way. 🙏🤣#greenkeeping #golf

@stokegreenstaff Fantastic job guys, going to be a pleasure to play off those two tees in a few months 👏👏

6/52 a week of hard work on the 9th T, rootzone on & turf lifted off our old 6th T to complete . Still some finishing off works around the path, etc, but great to get all our major winter projects compleated. #greenkeeping #golf

@stokegreenstaff @tillersturf Excellent work guys, thank you so much 👏👏👏

4/52 3rd T compleated 👌. Still a few little things to sort but the @tillersturf turf is down & growing. Squeezed in a much needed slit on green's 🤞can crack on with 9th T next week. #greenkeeping #golf

@stokegreenstaff 3rd looking good today guys, really come on well in the last week, good luck with the weather for the 9th

3/52 started another tee, we must be mad but we're keen & mad. Found these two beauties in my parents loft, obviously been a BIGGA member longer than I thought 🤦‍♂️#greenkeeping

@stokegreenstaff A fabulous Centenary year, you’ve worked so hard to produce magnificent surfaces for us to play on despite the weather that was literally thrown at you. THANK YOU Gareth, Simon, James, Jack & Eddie, without you we indeed have nothing 👏🙏♥️🏌️‍♂️⛳️

52/52 last tweet of the year, many thanks to all who have helped & supplied to us this year. Most of all, the biggest thanks to the team without whom nothing is possible. #greenkeeping #golf

@scully09 @stokegreenstaff Don’t think Charles has any trousers, maybe Santa will bring him some?

@stokegreenstaff Charles still in his shorts 😂

46/52 At last, an autumnal nip in the air. Still mowing too much for November, but things are cooling, so it should slow down 🤞. Hoping to make a start on winter projects in the upcoming week if the weather plays ball. #greenkeeping #golf

@stokegreenstaff Stunning today guys, great job thank you

30/52 Meadows full of blues & purple with Hare Bells, scabious & knapweed all bursting into flower with the warm week. 👌 Golf course always looks better in the sun 🌞 #greenkeeping #golf

Agree and think “A (fair) few” means 50 or possibly more!!

@PeterSmithAg @stokegreenstaff @StokeRochfordGC Was such good fun, mind you most of my shots normally are over, under or around trees so may have had an advantage 🤣

Centenary week ⁦@StokeRochfordGC⁩, today is Cross Country, a devilish course devised by yours truly. Lots of fun playing impossible looking holes mostly over the trees 🏌🏻‍♂️🌳🌲#SRGC💯2024

@stokegreenstaff Played today, course really is in first class condition and is visually stunning, massive thanks for all your efforts 👏👏👏

20/52 Centenary week has finally arrived. Everything mown at least twice even with Thurs washout. All starts with #racetowoodhall on Sunday. Team have worked flat out to produce the course at its best, thanks very much👌, mutiple comps next week 🙏for a dry one 🤞.#greenkeeping
