Abstract/Contents:Profiles the Reddish Vale golf course north of Stockport, UK which recently received numerous improvements. Describes the course before the renovations as having "eroded traffic routes, drainage problems on fairways, tiny teeing areas, a lack of woodland management, not to mention eroded bunkers and overall facilities and management lagging well behind the average standard." Lists the recent positive changes made at the course after "there was a groundswell within the Club to overcome difficulties and provide a better quality course for members and visitors alike." States that "the best results are undoubtably achieved when all three components of Club, Staff and Agronomist work together. Then we have the recipe for rapid success and there is no reason why Reddish Vale cannot go from strength to strength in the future."
