The unsung heroes!!

There are fewer beautiful sights than dawn breaking over a golf course on a fine day in Perthshire! My heart's in The Highlands!!

Mark,

What are they spraying on the rough??

Cheers,
B.

Brian I believe they are using blowers to tease the grass up?   Such is the price of perfection.


I think you can see James for about 0.5 secs as he takes the ball out of the hole?

Thanks for the alert Mark and well done James. Beutiful job
Let's make GCA grate again!

Hi everyone,

Mark, thanks for posting the video, can't believe the response its had.

For whoever was asking what me and wee Stevie was spraying…. well it was wetting agent, we only spray fertiliser in bare or struggling areas of rough!

Excellent video - well done James - and thanks Mark for highlighting it herein.
If 'Joe Golfer' wants to know why the course we see on TV look like they do he could do a lot worse than watch this video.
