35 degree heat, no clouds and certainly no rain. Perfect.

There's always a silver lining

I don’t want to depress everyone, but autumn/winter is fast approaching as we just about move into September. The good news though is that we have new stock arriving soon which is always rather exciting (or maybe I’m just a bit sad?!) and, therefore, we need to free up some space by selling off summer product.

So we have up to 50% OFF clothing from our Spring/Summer range. But once it’s gone, it’s gone!

Pop in store to see what great bargains you could find yourself.

Member's Invitational Day

We will be hosting our Member’s Guest Day on Sunday 1st October. The event will be a better ball competition made up of one member and a guest of their choice. Tee times can be booked through BRS and are available from 8am – 12pm.

Entry fee will be free for members and the usual £10 rate for a guest to pay. All entry money will be paid back out in prizes. This is a fantastic opportunity to showcase to your friends/colleagues the quality of course and facilities that we have to offer.

August Medal

Saturday was our August Medal, which was accompanied early on by the type of rain that is becoming very standard for the time of year! However, the golf course was prepared in time to allow the medal to go ahead as planned. Please see the results below:

Ladies Medal

Due to the weather on Friday, the ladies stableford was reduced to 12 holes with Maureen McLeod coming out on top with 25 points.

Coronation Foursomes Regional Finals

Well done to Eli Urquhart & Ann Mawhood who finished top-10 out of nearly 90 teams in the Regional Finals for Coronation Foursomes at Lanark Golf Club last week.

Bonus Ball

The bonus ball was won by Jeff Todd a fortnight ago and by Cammie Turner last week. £59 shop credit each.

Course Maintenance 

There will be essential aeration work carried out on the greens next week, weather permitting. This work is required to keep the playing surfaces healthy and continue to provide the best possible putting surfaces throughout the rest of the year. This work will only be carried out if the weather conditions allow for it at the start of the week. This work is normally carried out in July time but this was extended to keep the playing surfaces as smooth as possible, for as long as possible. Due to the recent persistent, wet weather, I’m sure you can understand why this work now needs carried out before the winter.

Why is this work so important?
