18TH BROOMFIELD HOLE REALIGNMENT WORK

Anyone who has played the Broomfield course or passed along Traill Drive this week may have noticed the work that is in progress on the 18th hole. For those not aware of what was planned, we have started to realign the 18th Broomfield hole. The changes were necessary due to problems regarding stray golf balls damaging an adjoining property and house holder's vehicles. This in turn meant that Montrose Golf Links have faced a number insurance claims against the damages.

The 18th Hole prior to work being carried out.

Plans were drawn up by our course architect to try and minimize the danger whilst at the same time improving the overall look of the hole.

Turf removed from the main work area.

 The work will be carried out as quickly as possible to try to keep disruption to a minimum.

  Once all the work has been completed I will post a full report on the project from start to finish.
