About Whaley Bridge Bowling Club
Whaley Bridge Bowling Club benefits from the Goyt Valley's natural drainage characteristics, which allow the crown green to come into play earlier in the spring than many High Peak clubs sitting on heavier clay. The free-draining soil means the mower can begin cutting sooner, but also means the green can dry out quickly in rare hot spells, requiring adjustments to cutting height. Twelve miles from PGT Repairs, the club schedules winter servicing to ensure equipment is ready for the earliest possible start to the season.
Good natural drainage from the Goyt Valley geology allows earlier spring preparation than many High Peak clubs. Equipment servicing is timed for late February.
Crown Green Maintenance Requirements
Crown greens demand a cylinder mower that can follow the contour of the crown — the raised centre that gives these greens their name. The mower must cut at a consistent 4-6mm height while navigating the subtle slopes, requiring precise blade adjustment and a well-maintained roller mechanism.
Crown green maintenance is as much about understanding the contours as it is about mowing. The crown must be maintained at a consistent gradient — any deviation creates bias that affects play. This means the mower setup must be exact, and any wear in the height adjustment mechanism needs prompt attention.
