Greens were cored last week. Back 9 fairways are being cored last week of October. Should be fine for play though.

I read the Supt report - I assumed it was just written - it could be a bit older.
They should be fine either way by 27 October.
They have also done tees, surrounds, par 3 surrounds, 6th and 9th fairway coring.
They are extending fairway approaches on 2, 3 and 8.
They have been remounding/seeding some of the roots on lhs of 1 as well.
Plus some tree management (incl between 15 and practice green).

Lots being done, all good. I must get there again soon - I'm in Sydney when you are visiting though.

Benje: I often play there Friday nights and occasionally Sunday afternoons in the Summer. I still have a couple of prepaid voucher books that makes it very cost effective. If your keen sometime let me know

Thank TC

by the way, greens were cored when you thought they were. First week of September.

The Course newsletter that I saw was from Sept 2018, not Sept 2019.
Ignore my post above about fairway coring etc etc.
They are doing some mounding on 9, 18, 2 and 5.
They are extending he irrigation on back towards the tee.

Re games at Blackwood - you get 6 free games don't you? via TTG. I don't. Friday late afternoon would be excellent.

only 3 Benje (might have changed recently) but I have 2 x BW prepaid voucher books that work out dirt cheap per round (non peak times), they don't sell them anymore (but of course honour anyone who has vouchers outstanding)

I can cover your round with one as they are transferable

I'm very unlikely to be able to make this one, but wouldn't be able to confirm until a couple of days before so best count me as a no. Sorry TC.

Ok, booking has now been cancelled

If anyone is interested in playing a Friday afternoon / evening let me know, there is a wonderful Mexican place in Stirling we can visit afterwards as well. Looks like Benje and I may be heading out there in the coming month or so

Played this course on Sunday, was in absolute pristine condition. Greens were a tad furry and slow but totally expected on a Sunday morning in the hills.

Shame it didn't work out
