Gannet Golf

Come with me as I play the Barassie Links golf course. ⛳️

The perfect day to be on the course. ☀️
How did I play and do you have any tips?

🎥 We interviewed Keir Rowan, Head of Greens at Kilmarnock (Barassie) Golf Club ⛳️
Keir shared the real deal on pitch marks – and why repairing them properly is a win for your game AND the greens.

✅ Use a proper pitch mark tool – not a tee
✅ Don’t lift the soil – drag the grass toward the centre
✅ A well-repaired mark = smoother putts + healthier greens
❌ Doing it wrong? You could leave a brown scar that lasts weeks

Keir’s team keeps the greens in championship-level shape – some of the best in the country. 🙌

Let’s all do our bit 💚 Repair it right.

🎯 How to actually fix a pitch mark – with Kerr Rowan, Course Manager at Kilmarnock (Barassie) Golf Club ⛳️

Keir shows us how the small stuff makes a big difference – especially when it comes to repairing pitch marks properly.

🚫 DON’T just jab and lift the soil – that leaves bare patches
🚫 DON’T use a tee – it’ll rip the grass
✅ DO use a proper tool and drag the grass toward the centre
✅ DO tap it down with a putter to finish!

👨‍🌾 Kerr and his team keep the greens championship-ready – and it all starts with attention to detail. Want smoother putts? Help your greenskeeper out 💚

🚨 Bunker Raking 101 with Kerr Rowan – Course Manager at Kilmarnock (Barassie) Golf Club 🏌️‍♂️⛳️

Let’s be honest – most golfers think they’re raking bunkers properly… but Kerr’s here to show us the real dos and don’ts 👇

❌ Don’t rake one-handed – it leaves humps and grooves
❌ Don’t just drag the sand back – it piles up at the back of the bunker
✅ Do take your time and use both hands
✅ Do smooth it out evenly – sometimes a gentle push is enough
✅ Do flatten big footprints before raking the rest

A smoother bunker = better lies for everyone 👏
Let’s keep the course as good as Kerr and his team do!
