๐ŸŒฑ Monday 21st September 2026 ๐ŸŒ๏ธโ€โ™‚๏ธ

Here we are โ€” another new week, and September is absolutely flying by! ๐Ÿ‚

The forecast is looking very favourable for golf this week, with temperatures set to climb into the mid-20s in places. โ˜€๏ธ So, make the most of it while you can โ€” the sunrises are getting later, the sunsets earlier, and those autumn evenings are certainly drawing in.

The grass, however, clearly hasnโ€™t received the memo! ๐ŸŒฑ๐Ÿ˜‚ Weโ€™ve been busy from the off today, with the greens, tees, aprons, collars and fairways all receiving a good tidy-up. Add in freshly raked bunkers, plenty of work on the driving range, and a few approaches and banks to finish the day, and itโ€™s been a busy one.

๐Ÿ”ง Tomorrow: drainage work begins on the 11th apron, with the hole closed during the morning while we get underway.

Another productive start to the week as we continue preparing the course for the changing seasons. ๐Ÿ’ชโ›ณ๏ธ

๐Ÿ’ง Drainage Project #2 โ€“ 8th Green Apron โ›ณ

Another area ticked off! โœ…

This week weโ€™ve lifted the turf, installed additional 80mm perforated drainage pipe, backfilled with clean gravel and carefully relaid the turf. ๐Ÿ’ง๐Ÿ”ง๐ŸŒฑ

Weโ€™re targeting areas of the course that struggled through last winter, with the aim of improving drainage, keeping the course drier and ultimately creating more playable golf and more golfing days throughout the winter months. โ›ณ๏ธ๐ŸŒง๏ธ

Project #2 complete! โœ”๏ธ

Itโ€™s a Fresh Hole Friday here at Wedmore! โ›ณ๏ธ๐Ÿ˜Ž

A bit overcast overhead today, but itโ€™s mild and the greenkeepers are out putting the finishing touches to the course ahead of the weekend. After completing a couple of drainage projects and getting plenty of mowing done this week, itโ€™s all about getting everything looking and playing its best. ๐Ÿ’ช๐ŸŒฑ

This morning:
๐ŸŸข Greens freshly rolled
โœ‚๏ธ Tees, aprons & collars freshly mown
๐Ÿ“ Pins changed for a fresh challenge for the weekend and week ahead

After break, the bunkers have had a fresh rake ๐Ÿ–๏ธ, before attention turns to the driving range to make sure there are plenty of balls ready for some weekend practice! ๐ŸŒ๏ธโ€โ™‚๏ธ๐ŸŒ๏ธโ€โ™€๏ธ

Another busy week in the booksโ€ฆ now itโ€™s time to let the course do the talking! ๐Ÿ˜Žโ›ณ๏ธ

๐Ÿ‘ THURSDAY 17TH SEPTEMBER ๐Ÿ‘

๐Ÿšœ New mower demonstration at Wedmore?! ๐Ÿ‘€

We had a rather unusual visitor out on the back nine this morningโ€ฆ a four-legged, woolly mower! ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ˜‚ We thought weโ€™d give a new automated mowing technology a try, but unfortunately this particular model was very slow, required no charging and was far too friendly! ๐Ÿคฃ

The demonstration didnโ€™t last overly long, and after a quick wander around the course, our new mower has now been safely returned to its owner. ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ‘ No harm done โ€” just a little extra entertainment for the greenkeeping team!

๐ŸŒฑ Away from our temporary sheep-powered machinery, weโ€™ve been busy getting the course under control in these lush green growing conditions. Fresh cuts for the greens, fairways, semi-rough and rough, bringing those heights back down and keeping the course looking its best. โ›ณ๏ธ๐Ÿ’š

๐ŸŒฆ๏ธ A little light drizzle first thing, with overcast skies and a breeze, but things are looking set to turn drier as the day goes on.

๐Ÿ“ WHERE AM I WEDNESDAY? ๐Ÿค”๐ŸŒฟ

A big THANK YOU to everyone who got involved last week! ๐Ÿ™Œ Last weekโ€™s challenge was a little different as we were away watching England ๐Ÿ vs Pakistan โ€” so it was just a bit of fun!

But this weekโ€ฆ WEโ€™RE BACK AT WEDMORE! โ›ณ๐ŸŒฑ

So, WHERE AM I? ๐Ÿ‘€

Think you know where this is on the course? ๐Ÿง Put your answer in the comments below โฌ‡๏ธ๐Ÿ‘‡

๐ŸŽฏ Come on, have a guess! You never know, you might be right! ๐Ÿ˜Ž

Weโ€™ll reveal the answer this eveningโ€ฆ ๐Ÿ”

๐ŸŒฑ Tuesday 15th September โ›ณ๏ธ

A little light drizzle first thing this morning ๐ŸŒฆ๏ธ, but thatโ€™s now blown through and weโ€™re looking set for a dry day ahead. A little breezy, with a mixture of blue skies, broken cloud and some bright sunshine โ˜€๏ธ๐Ÿ’จ

The grass is growing at quite a rate now, so weโ€™re keeping on top of the mowing and tackling the growth across the course ๐ŸŒฑโœ‚๏ธ

Meanwhile, weโ€™re getting stuck into some of our autumn drainage projects, starting today at the 13th green ๐Ÿšœ๐Ÿ’ง. Plenty more to follow as we work through the areas that struggled during the wetter months.

Autumn jobs are well and truly underway! ๐Ÿ‚โ›ณ๏ธ

๐ŸŒฑ MONDAY 14TH SEPTEMBER โ›ณ๏ธ

A great start to the week with the full team in today and plenty getting done as we prepare the course for the week ahead. ๐Ÿ’ช๐ŸŒฟ

This morning has seen a fresh mow of the fairways, tees, aprons, collars and greens, while the bunkers have been freshly raked and the driving range picked and cut. ๐ŸŒ๏ธโ€โ™‚๏ธ

The new 10th green has also had another cut โ€” something weโ€™re now doing several times a week as it continues to establish nicely. ๐Ÿ‘Œโ›ณ๏ธ

๐ŸŒง๏ธ 4mm of rain recorded overnight, followed by a light drizzle first thing. Itโ€™s been an overcast but very mild morning, and the grass is certainly making the most of it โ€” growing at a rapid rate! ๐ŸŒฑ

And with the recent weather, itโ€™s great to see those defined Wedmore stripes back in play! ๐Ÿ’š

A little overseeding has also taken place around some collars and other areas that have struggled through the summer, helping give them the best possible start as we head into autumn. ๐ŸŒพ

All systems go at Wedmore! ๐Ÿšœโ›ณ๏ธ
