Sean,

Thanks for bumping this up to highlight Buda, though I feel slightly awkward whenever I read the Subject!  :-[

I played Sherwood a couple of times last year. Regarding tree removal / loss after the storm, from memory your older photos dont look that different, but on closer inspection I think a fair number of the silver birches have gone, especially down the right of 8 and 9 on your pictures. Other key areas where a lot of trees had to be removed are behind 5 green and around 6 tee, and along the right of the 18th. The pines that can be seen on the right of your pics of 4 are all gone as well.

Cheers,

James

Boony

I am intrigued by some of the tree loss, although you stated that on the whole it hasn't been positive for the course. 

Ciao

Any idea who is responsible for the bunker work?

Nice tour and a nice looking course.

The bunker work looks very similar to what Hawtree has done with some bunkers at De Pan
