GREENKEEPERS

ACTUAL

Work:
The job status will have current info on that day's work.

Both the grastee at the front and back of the driving range will be "closed" starting Oct. 1.

course Non Q as of Oct. 31.

Starting Oct. 31, work will begin in preparation for flattening various tees throughout course. The course will be Non Q from then on!

This causes inconvenience in the form of sometimes significantly, shortened holes where we are working. Sometimes the work is on several holes, yet the tees are then far forward because it is difficult for us to change this several times a day. We rely on your understanding for this. We try to keep the course as playable as possible. The tees that are out are on the map attached to this message.

As soon as possible, the tees are back in their (winter) positions.

Starting Monday, Nov. 11, the tees will be covered with grass again. There will be light bonding during this period, however, you should note that the tees will not be playable until after winter. We also depend on the weather in the spring.

Nevertheless, enjoy the course from a different angle and distance as well and remember that you will get a better course in return next season!

On behalf of the course committee and greenkeepers 

Following the levelling of the tees, a number of fairways will be sanded. These are the wetter fairways that gave problems last winter/spring. The following fairways will be sanded and aerated from Wednesday and Thursday: holes 4, 8, 14 & 15. During this work, the fairway in question will be closed to ensure the progress of the work.

ROBOT MOWER

You can encounter the autonomous mower in the course!

Cameras
:
The machine is equipped with cameras at the front and rear. Large obstacles from 50 cm or more or golfers, bags, trolleys and buggy's are detected with these. If these come near the machine, the mower will stop; as soon as you are no longer in view, the mowing continues.

Impact bumpers:
As an additional safety feature, the machine is equipped with impact bumpers at the front and rear, which, when pressed down, bring the mower to a stop.

Supervision:
The robot fairway mower can also be stopped by a greenkeeper via remote control, so there is always a greenkeeper nearby for supervision. The robotic fairway mower can also send its own messages in case of a malfunction or when it has finished mowing.

Golf balls:
The machine will move golf balls in the cutting line to your advantage or disadvantage. If your golf ball is in the cutting line, you can remove it temporarily and put it back; do not use a marker. It will go through the cutting unit and may cause damage.
Note: If your ballis under the mower, NEVER take it out! Wait until the machine has moved.

Hitting:
Never hit when the machine is too close and/or driving into your batting lane.
You can, however, just hit from the tee with the maxim: avoid the machine as much as possible to avoid damage. 

BLUE LIGHT

While working with a machine, the flashing light will be on. When the flashing light is on, it means you are not allowed to hit. Once the greenkeeper steps aside and turns off the flashing light in conjunction with raising your hand, you may strike again. During mowing the greens with the hand machines, this will only be the raising of the hand. In the case of aeration work in the course , giving a signal will take longer. The greenkeeper will then usually signal when he is out of striking range with the tractor by turning off the flashing light. If you do not notice this he will raise a hand or sound a horn.

It is an interaction of give and take, where the safety of the greenkeeper is paramount. We try to disturb you as little as possible while you are playing golf, but we do ask for your understanding.
