Tree work on 11


As many of you have seen, we have spent some time tidying the woodland on the left hand side of the 11th fairway. There are a mix of fantastic mature trees in this part of the golf course, but many silver birch have grown in there making it look unsightly. Silver birch are not a poor tree if allowed to grow in the right places, but in this woodland they have grown very tall and thin to "chase the light". The eradication of the trees in this area has made it look much neater and allowed the feature trees more light and room to grow. It will also help with airflow through to the 12th green, improving the year round playability of this green. Here are a few pictures from the middle section before and after.
