Over 12 years @SandAGolfClub and my time has come to an end. Too many of you to thank over my time at S&A. It all started with Mike and Tony hiring me at the club all those years ago! Thank you to both of you for being a huge part of my journey.

Whilst winter projects continue it's good to get some more sand around the course, including the use of our newest investment for the fairways thanks to @ethanyates1995 for delivery of our big topdresser 👌 Great to get another dusting on the greens this morning too

As the bunker reno program is drawing to a close, the standards remain high as always. We've even taken an opportunity to begin the 2025 greens programs with 6mm solid tines followed by dynaseeding some more bents in along with the first dusting of sand of the year #linksgolf

A fantastic day @SandAGolfClub yesterday hosting the Millennium Links trophy finals. Thanks to everyone involved - it was a very special day at S&A and made even more memorable when we were presented with the winning trophy!

Love to see the benefits of an overseed paying off so quickly even with recent temps being so up and down! Dynaseeded 11 days ago love those units @GreenTekGroup 👌🔥

Without greenkeepers, there would be no golf. The ludicrously early starts, the kit that always needs fixing, the budgets that don’t stretch far enough, the unrealistic expectations of members asking one inane question after another, or the weather that always seems to be conspiring against you. These guys just don’t get the credit they deserve for their resilience and perseverance. 👊 👏 🙌 #ThankAGreenkeeper day!

Surfaces really performing at the minute chuffed with where they're at! Great to get some air into the paths too gives us chance to get more sand into them and ensure the irrigation is doing what it should on them. All in the detail 👌

It's great to be back @SandAGolfClub and the lads @SandAgreens after being away for so long, having had open heart surgery. I can not thank them enough for all the help and support they have given me throughout my recovery. Thank you again. ❤️
