Did yours stand up?

No Smiffy, not that!

Your course to the high winds of the week.

We have lost 2 or 3 mature trees and numerous have been badly damaged. The most telling is on our SI 3 third which pretty much everyone considers to be the toughest hole on the course. Most of the large branches that overhang the fairly tight line through on the left have gone and the big tree opposite on the right has been flattened altogether making the need for an accurate tee shot less and opening the green for the 2nd stroke which can now be attacked even off the back of a less than perfect position with less risk.

You would think I'd be chuffed as the third is usually my nemesis...but I'm not! (still managed to double it today though - more owing to a dodgy lie in a bunker than the flora )

Lost of few smaller limbs on trees, nothing major.

Although the club is only a quarter mile from where the woman was killed on friday morning due to the falling tree. The course was closed today, not sure if it was linked though.

I stupidly went to our practice area on thursday,no-one else mad enough to be anywhere near the course.I was doing some chipping,when i heard a fifty foot tree creeking,all of a sudden half of it crashed to the ground only 60 yrds away.A quick exit home.

We lost 2 huge branches off 2 trees during the year, mainly due to age and not high winds. Can't see that anything came down this week but there are some boughs that would make a real mess of a green if they came down the wrong way.

Haven't been to the club this weekend (off looking after my mum after radiotherapy) so no idea. Hoping to get out for a few holes late tomorrow and so it'll be interesting tosee what state it's in in terms of waterlogging and fallen trees. I hope it'll be ok especially the smaller ones planted in the last year or so as we need them for the hole definition we're looking for
