Case Studies
Golf Course Fairway Drainage
Golf Course Greens Drainage
Jamie Saitch - Owner, The Rayleigh Club
"As the owner of the Rayleigh Club, and having had Turfdry install drainage to both our championship members course and our pay & play course, I can honestly say that both courses have gone from being only playable 8-9 months per year to 12 months a year; in fact, the only closure we have had since the drainage was installed has been due to frost.
The product works and works well, the planning and services given are exceptional, and I would recommend both to anyone looking to make their golf course an all-round better playing surface. We have found that not only are the fairways much dryer, the growth we are experiencing since the drainage has been installed is also much thicker and healthier.
To me, the ultimate proof is that we now have over 50 people waiting to join the members course as they are aware that they are pretty much guaranteed all year round golf, and I’m certain there cannot be many golf clubs that can boast that fact. "
Brian Turner - Course Manager, Sunningdale Golf Club
"The Turfdry Drainage System [using Hydraway] has improved the greens dramatically."
Gordon Lumbis - Greens Chairman, Chilwell Manor Golf Club
"The work has been most successful. Tested by a fall of 3 inches of snow followed by a night's rain, the water drained through the system perfectly. Our members have been most complimentary about money well spent and I am pleased to advise our complete satisfaction."
Gordon Scott - Past Captain, Fairwood Park Golf Club
"I was very much against any drainage work being done on the greens, but the results have been magnificent!"
David Murdoch MG - Liphook Golf Club
"I have never seen drainage work like this in my life! What was the wettest area of the course is now one of the driest."
Kevin Piper - Head Greenkeeper, Holsworthy Golf Club
"Before the drainage works by Turfdry the course could only properly be used for nine months of the year, but now we can expect to play throughout the year. Thanks to the Turfdry Drainage System, our greens are in use when similar courses in the area are on temporary greens."
Tony Sharman - Course Manager, Cherry Lodge
"I'm very happy indeed with the greens drainage, and so are all the members. Firmness of the greens is good and we can get machinery on when it's not normally possible at this time of year".
