As most of you will know, we have 3 key pillars to our strategy at PRGolfClub:
- To improve the course each and every year
- To encourage a culture of learning to help golfers maximise their enjoyment of the golf
- To provide the highest levels of customer service
With respect to improving the course, earlier this year I interviewed extensively for a consultant capable of a) developing your course to the next level and b) developing the greenkeeping team so that improvements are embedded into ongoing process. These consultants are at the top of their game, working on top courses such as Beaconsfield.
As part of the selection process, we tested their new ideas in the run up to the Club Championships and the results speak for themselves!!
Competition Secretary – “This is the best condition we have seen for years and years – well done”
Neil Terry – “the greens are 300% better – now we have a chance when we play away against the very top clubs, because our greens are just as good, just as fast and just as even”
Whiteleaf visitor – “you are starting to leave us behind – well done”
We will keep you posted on the appointment and any further developments.
In the meantime, the consultants all told us that we must encourage members to self police the following:
- Protect your greens – always repair your pitch marks and do not lean on your putter when you retrieve your ball from the holeWe have provided free pitch repairers at reception
- Protect your tees – always replace the divots, always use a Tee on holes 3 and 8All of the divot boxes are full of sand and seed
We purchased 20 tonnes of top grade sand to help bring on the tees
Thank you…
