My course installed fairway watering 30 years ago, due to the fact that we have little topsoil over rock which is great for drainage in winter but meant that it burnt up in summer very quickly. It was seen as a unnecessary extravagance for the first 15 years or so but in recent times has been worth it’s weight in gold. We have upgraded our boreholes to cope with the need for more irrigation in recent years. I was wondering if other courses are considering installing fairway irrigation due to the seemingly drier hotter conditions or if they have it already?
