Course Maintenance (1)

For the love of Mike Clayton, who is managing the course maintenance crews?


Last night, there was a deluge at the course. Today, what do we see the course maintenance crews doing - mowing the fairways! While the bunkers are unplayable and in desperate need of attention, they're mowing the fairways. Great work boys!


While I'm on the subject, how stupid are they? They mow the fairways in hole number order. Hole 1 followed by Hole 2, and so on. This means that if you're unlucky, you cop the mower for multiple holes in a row. Brilliant. Has no one pointed out to them if they were to mow in reverse hole order, then they would only affect any one group at most once.


But seriously, who is in charge? I presume it is the course superintendent who directs the maintenance staff. Clearly this guy is not up to the job. And who is meant to manage the superintendent - the Club Captain? Ditto.
