What is hollow coring ?
Hollow coring is the removal of cores from the playing surface. The hole size can vary in diameter and depth depending on the reason required. The cores are ejected, cleared up and removed. Then a top dress will be applied to fill up the holes, we brush, fertilize and roll all the surface and water it.
Why is it done ?
With the volume of traffic we have it causes the ground to become compacted and hardened. This means drainage is less efficient and the grass roots are prevented from absorbing oxygen. Hollow coring allows the compacted turf to expand and air and moisture to be more easily absorbed. The coring helps address the problem of thatch.(Thatch is a layer of grass stems,roots and debris that settle and accumulate overtime). A thin layer is acceptable but too much thatch will hold water like a sponge.

18 HOLES OF BEAUTY AND ENJOYMENT
Visually, Blue Bay’s golf course is an attraction in itself. Designer William ‘Rocky’ Rocquemore has made perfect use of the natural height differences, sand, sea and rocks, and the result is a joy to behold.
Above all, however, these 18 holes are a joy to play. They offer a surprising challenge to players of every level. Many have learned to play golf here, and have become addicted to this course. More experienced players (and often international pros) happily find their way to the attractive and fun tournaments. View our golf calendar for upcoming events.
