Lovely Autumn morning and conditions are currently excellent for today's Stableford competition. #cowglengolfclub #golf #course #stableford #competition #autumn #glasgow #jamesbraidcourse #scotland #cowglengolfclubproshop

A freezing start to the day with a light frost but the full greens are still in play.

With exception of the wind not a bad day for a game and the course is looking great for the time of year.

A very windy start to the day and it looks like the rain is to follow, the storm has arrived and its not looking great.

A change in the weather forecast shows that it should be a pretty decent day for a game now.

A hard frozen fog covering much of the course at the moment, play has been suspended until 9 o'clock giving the fog time to lift. This shouldn't impact later tee times. However, we advise members that there may be a 15 minute delay if your tee time w...

After a further inspection from the greenkeepers, there are now 15 full greens in play. Holes 7,12 and 17 will remain on temporary greens for the rest of the day.

Greens are being cut and most will be in play today. Single seat buggies are permitted. #cowglengolfclub #jamesbraidcourse #scotland #cowglengolfclubproshop

A damp start to the day but the course is open and most full greens are on. Single seater buggies are also allowed.

Gorgeous again however temporary greens will be in play due to the frozen ground and frost. #cowglengolfclub #frost #wintersun #golf #scotland #cowglengolfclubproshop

A cold but otherwise gorgeous start to the day and March.Temporary greens in play due to the frost. #cowglengolfclub #march #stdavidsday #golf #scotland #cowglengolfclubproshop

Due to the heavy overnight rain all greens will be on temporary surfaces today and no buggies of any sort permitted. #cowglengolfclub #golf #cowglengolfclubproshop

All 18 full greens in play today

All 18 greens in play today following the greenkeepers inspection.

Nice but cold start to the day

Lovely start to the day this morning, still waiting to hear from the greenkeepers regarding the greens status. I shall update once I hear.

A much better morning than there has been of late but the greens and surrounds are still saturated so temp green will remain in play.

The course has re-opened. All temporary surfaces and no buggies of any sort are permitted. Care should be taken on all areas of the course, carpark and clubhouse due the underfoot conditions and the risk of ice especially on slopes and paths and step...

Incredible difference from yesterday! The snow has all but gone with exception of some little pockets here and there however the course is currently still closed while the greenstaff carry out their inspection. I will update as soon as this is comple...

Not really that surprising but the course is closed.

The course has reopened. All greens are on temporary surfaces and no buggies of any type permitted due to the ground conditions. #cowglengolfclub #golf #scotland #cowglengolfclubproshop

The course is closed and will remain so for the rest of the day. #cowglengolfclub #cowglengolfclubproshop

The course is currently still closed. The greenstaff are carrying out thier inspection. Following this the status will be updated if the course re-opens. #cowglengolfclub #cowglengolfclubproshop

Course Closed

Unsurprisingly due to the heavy rain over night and the current weather conditions, the course is closed and I'd expect it to be shut for the remainder of the day with the forecast to be wet all day.

The course has just re-opened. All greens will be on temporary surfaces and no buggies of any sort will be permitted due to the conditions underfoot. #cowglengolfclub #wintergolf #scotland #cowglengolfclubproshop

We can only hope that it clears for the weekend! #cowglengolfclub #snow #golf #course #scotland #cowglengolfclubproshop

Not surprisingly the course will be remaining closed.

The course has just re-opened all be it with 18 temporary greens and no buggies of any kind.

Unfortunately the course is closed due to the course being completely saturated.

The course is open however all greens are on temporary surfaces and given how saturated the ground is no buggies ( including single seaters) will be permitted today. #cowglengolfclub #golf #course #glasgow #braiddesign #cowglengolfclubproshop

6 temporary greens in play

After inspection from the greenkeepers, there are 6 temporary greens in play today. Holes 2,7,10,12,17 and 18 all have temporary greens on. Apart from that a rather dull looking day, a good day for a game if the rain stays away.

A very blustery and wet night but thankfully the rain appears to have eased for now. Unfortunately the course is saturated and all temp greens remain in play.

Course is open but probably not surprising that all greens are on temporary surfaces. #cowglengolfclub #frostygolfcourse #wintergolf #scotland #cowglengolfclubproshop

Unfortunately after last night's snow and rain the course is closed.

Following more rain through the night temporary surfaces will be in play again today. #cowglengolfclub #wintergolf #scotland #cowglengolfclubproshop

Most greens are on temporary surfaces today due to the wet underfoot conditions. #cowglengolfclub #wintergolf #braidgolfcourse #scotland #cowglengolfclubproshop

Course open today but all winter greens in play

The course will be open today but all winter greens will be in play due to the flooded conditions underfoot. We ask members and guests take caution when playing due to the wet conditions.

The course is currently closed. Inspections are being carried out and if there is any change I will update. #cowglengolfclub

Most greens will be in play on what is a cold start to the day. 8mm of rain through the night and more just starting to fall means buggies will not be in play. #cowglengolfclub #golf #jamesbraidgolfcourse #scotland #glasgow #cowglengolfclubproshop

Another wet and windy night but the course is holding up pretty well with only 2 temp greens on. No buggies in use.

Similar status to yesterday with 14 greens in play while Gradening work is carried out and buggies not permitted. #cowglengolfclub #golf #course #jamesbraidcourse #scotland #cowglengolfclubproshop

14 Greens in play today as 4 undergo some further Gradening work. No buggies permitted today. #cowglengolfclub #golf #braiddesign #glasgow #greenkeeping #cowglengolfclubproshop

Another stormy night but the course is holding up well and we have 17 full greens on today. The 2nd is a temp green and there may also be temp greens at 8 and 17 while work is carried out. No buggies in use.

All 18 full greens in play today

A great day for a game, all greens in play. Hopefully the rain forecast for later stays away. There will also be a baby shower taking place in the clubhouse between 1pm and 5pm. So part of the lounge will be closed to members, sorry for any inconveni...

Strong winds of up to 50mph and light rain certainly make for very challenging conditions. All greens are on but no buggies in use.

Another excellent start to the day for January with 17 full greens on but no buggies in use.

The weather has calmed after a pretty wet and windy night and the course has held up pretty well. 17 full greens on once again with the 2nd hole still on temp. Unfortunately after further inspection the buggies are off.

Hard to believe it's January! Pictures taken yesterday. Not just as nice this morning but still pretty good for the time of year. 17 greens and buggies in play. #cowglengolfclub #golf #course #scotland #jamesbraid #cowglengolfclubproshop

Course status remains the same as yesterday with 17 greens in play and buggies permitted. #cowglengolfclub #golf #course #jamesbraidcourse #glasgow #cowglengolfclubproshop

The majority of greens should be on today with a couple being rested after having work carried out to them in the last couple of days.

The course is open today, there will be a mix of full and temporary greens in play today. Great to see the course bouncing back so quickly following the adverse weather conditions of the last few days.

As the cold snap continues all temporary greens will still be in play due to frozen underfoot conditions. Paths are icy so extreme care should be taken and avoided where possible.

Temporary greens in play and are likely to be all day given the temperature isn't to rise above 4 degrees. Care should be taken on slopes and paths and all efforts made to avoid any icy areas. #cowglengolfclub #frost #golf #course #scotland #jamesbra...

Course Open with 13 temporary greens in play. #cowglengolfclub #golf #course #scotland #braiddesigns #cowglengolfclubproshop

Another miserable night for the final day of the year meaning the course is well and truly saturated. All temp greens are on today and no buggies.

The course is open but not surprisingly after yesterdays rain there are 13 temporary greens in play today and no buggies of any kind can be used.

A pretty awful looking forecast with the rain starting at 8.00am but Im sure the greens will be in play for the start of play. If anything changes I will post.

Another great day for a game

The rain is staying away currently and very little wind. Great conditions for a game today considering the time of year.

All 18 full greens in play today

Following the greenkeepers inspection, all 18 full greens will be in play today.

Course Open and looking good

The course is open today and the weather looks set to be nice for this time of year. A great day for a game following the festive period. I will update you on the greens once I have heard back from the greenkeepers.

Wishing you all a very Merry and wonderful Christmas. #cowglengolfclub #christmas #merrychristmas #christmasday #cowglengolfclubproshop

Happy Christmas Eve, thankfully the rain has stopped and its a much dryer morning. All greens should be back on.

A wet start to the day and a wet forecast, not the best looking day. Ive still to hear about the greens status and will update as soon as I do, buggies will not be on. Not surprisingly after all the rain it'll mostly be temp greens in play.

A freezing foggy start to the day (hopefully it lifts quickly), still to be confirmed but I would expect all full greens to be on.

18 greens in play and buggies permitted on what is another fantastic day for the time of year. #cowglengolfclub #golf #scotland #jamesbraidcourse #cowglengolfclubproshop

Another very mild morning considering it is mid December. All greens should be on except the couple that are being worked on and I have still to hear about whether or not buggies can be on.

A fairly mild start to the day with 16 full greens in play, work will be being carried out on the 7th and 13th greens. Buggies will be on too.

18 Greens in play and buggies permitted today. #cowglengolfclub #golf #scotland #jamesbraidcourse #cowglengolfclubproshop

Pretty damp under foot after 25mm of rainfall last night but the course is open with most if not all full greens in play. No buggies unfortunately.

Course Closed

Due to the snowfall that is currently covering the course, the course is closed until further notice.

A much milder start to the day which will hopefully see all the greens on but with the over night rain 2 seater buggies will not be on.

A cold frosty start to the day with all winter greens most likely in play until the frost lifts. No buggies.

A really excellent morning for the time of year. Relativley mild , dry and no frost. I have still to hear from the greenstaff however I think most if not all greens will be in play.

Another wet start

The bad weather continues with it currently raining here at the club. The forecast is for it to continue raining most of the day, not a great day for a game. A day to get the waterproofs on if you are going to brave it.

The course has held up sensationally to all the rain and is open with 18 greens in play. #cowglengolfclub #drainage #autumncolours #dronepics #greenkeeping #braidgolfcourse #cowglengolfclubproshop

The course is open and there are few puddles visible from the clubhouse area. This is a big credit to Michael and his team after the heavy rain overnight, the course has held up immaculately for the Stableford today.

Thankfully a milder start to the day than yesterday with no frost in sight, a pretty decent day for a game.

Quite a change in the weather over night with temperatures plummeting, definitely time to dig out the winter gear. A heavy frost covers the course at the moment so there will be no buggies until it lifts.

A bit blustery this morning but the course is still looking superb for the time of year.

Hard to believe it's almost the middle of October! #cowglengolfclub #golf #october #course #scotland #braiddesign #cowglengolfclubproshop

A little rain starting to fall but otherwise conditions a currently excellent for today's Stroke competition. #cowglengolfclub #golf #droneshots #glasgow #braiddesigns #cowglengolfclubproshop

Perfect start the week. #cowglengolfclub #golf #glasgow #jamesbraid #cowglengolfclubproshop

Hole In One!

Many congratulations to Andy Moodie who had a Hole in One at the 12th in yesterday's Satableford. Not a bad way to start the competitive season! #cowglengolfclub #holeinone #ace #golf #glasgow #scotland #jamesbraiddesign #cowglengolfclubproshop

An overcast start to the day

An overcast start to the day, with very fine rain falling currently. The course is open and all full greens should be in play. I will update if I hear differently, but it's very likely all 18 full greens will be in play today.

Couldn't ask for a better start to the day for our first Saturday competition of the year. There is a frost lying again but I don't think it will effect play and will hopefully burn away soon. #cowglengolfclub #golf #scotland #glasgow #braiddesign #c...

All 18 full greens in play

After inspection from the greenkeepers, all 18 full greens are now in play.

Another cold start

A cold start with a frost covering the course, the greenkeepers are carrying out an inspection currently. However, I think that all winter greens will be in play today, at least until the frost has lifted. I shall update as and when I hear from them.

Very cold but gorgeous morning. I suspect temporary greens will be in play until the frost lifts later in the morning as it looks like it's going to be a cracker. #cowglengolfclub #frostygolfcourse #golf #braiddesign #scotland #cowglengolfclubproshop

What a difference a day makes. Chilly but otherwise an absolutely stunning morning. All greens in play. #cowglengolfclub #golf #scotland #braiddesign #cowglengolfclubproshop

Not a great forecast for today but its dry at the moment and the course is looking good for a game.

What a difference the recent dry weather has made to the course which is really starting to take shape. #cowglengolfclubproshop #golf #glasgow #scotland #greenkeeping #scottishgolf #braidgolfcourse #cowglengolfclubproshop

Cold again but most importantly dry which is seeing the course get better every day. #cowglengolfclub #golf #dronephotography #glasgow #braidcourse #cowglengolfclubproshop

Another stunning but cold morning. Temporary greens will be in play until the frost lifts which hopefully won't take too long. #cowglengolfclub #golf #scotland #frost #braidgolfcourse #cowglengolfclubproshop

Gorgeous morning though it's very cold and there is a light dusting of snow covering the greens at the moment. Despite this all greens are in play as are buggies. #cowglengolfclub #golf #scotland #springsnow #braid #cowglengolfclubproshop

With the frost lifting all greens are now going back on. #cowglengolfclub #golf #springsunshine #glasgow #cowglengolfclubproshop

Cold start and due to the frost there will be a mixture of temporary and full greens in play until it lifts. #cowglengolfclub #golf #scotland #braidgolfcourse #cowglengolfclubproshop

A cold, fresh start to the day but hopefully it'll heat up and should be a pleasant day for a game. All greens are on.

A perfect morning for a game for the time of year. Following the deluge on Sunday and Monday the underfoot conditions are still a bit too soft for buggies. #cowglengolfclub #golf #braiddesigns #glasgow #cowglengolfclubproshop

A superb morning for a game. Mild, dry not much if any wind and all greens in play. #cowglengolfclub #golf #braiddesign #cowglengolfclubproshop

Probably not surprisingly the course is closed. At the moment it doesn't look like this status will change however if it does I will post. The good news is that the forecast looks better for tomorrow onwards. All the very best to all the clubs down s...

9 winter greens in play today

After inspection from the greenkeepers, there are 9 winter greens in play today. We also ask that members take care when playing due to the slippy conditions from the heavy rainfall last night.

Wet Start

After a heavy night of rainfall the course is open. However, it is most likely that there will be a few winter greens on due to the heavy rainfall. The greenkeepers are still carrying out their inspection, I shall update once I hear from them.

Another night of rain and a mixed bag forecast but the course is open. Wrap up warm though as there is a freezing cold wind.

Not a very pleasant start to the day. All greens in play but only single seat ride on buggies permitted today. #cowglengolfclub #golf #braiddesign #glasgow #cowglengolfclubproshop

Only one temporary green in play (17th) today. #braiddesign #cowglengolfclub #golf #glasgow #cowglengolfclubproshop

The greenstaff are carrying out their inspection. With 20mm of rain through the night some temporary greens will be in play. When I get confirmation of numbers I will post. #cowglengolfclub #braidcourse #golf #scottishgolf #cowglengolfclubproshop

The course closed sign is currently up as the greenkeepers check if the course will open today after the freezing cold temperatures overnight. I will keep you posted once I hear what the course status is for the day from the greenkeepers.

11 Full greens in play today

After inspection from the greenkeepers, there will be 11 full greens in play today.

Overcast start

It's an overcast start to the day with the forecast for it to remain dry for much of the day. The greenkeepers are currently carrying out their greens inspection, once I am informed of which winter greens are in play I shall update.

Greenstaff have just finished their inspection. 7 full greens are in play

Considering the rain that fell through the night it's great to see that the course is open. I expect most if not all greens to be on temporary surfaces and will update the status if there is any change once the greenstaff have finished thier inspecti...

Another damp start to the day. 1 and 18 are still closed and mostly temporary greens on the holes open.

Course has just reopened. Holes 1 and 18 remain closed, all greens are on temporary surfaces and care needs to be taken, especially on slopes due to underfoot conditions.

Probably not surprising that the course is closed. Given the forecast Michael doubts whether there will be any change to this. If there is I will update. #winter #december #rain #cold #scottishwinter #cowglengolf #cowglengolfclub #golf #club #glasgow...

What a difference a couple of hours makes, with the frost gone most greens are now being cut and will be going in to play.

A freezing frosty start to the day means all temp greens will be in play to begin with. If there is any change I will post.

Great progress today on the work to improve the drainage of the practice area. #winterprojects #drainagesolutions #drainage #rain #golf #practicearea #club #golfpracticerange #scottishgolf #glasgowgolf

16 full greens in play

After inspection from the greenkeepers, 16 full greens are in play, the 2 winter greens are 12 and 18.

Another wet night

A nice start to the morning after another wet night. The course is open, the greenkeepers are currently carrying out their greens inspection. Once I have heard from them I shall post further details.

Quite pleasant conditions at the moment however after the rain through the night there is a possibility of some temporary greens being in play. Course is still being inspected and as soon as I hear from greenstaff I will update.

Not a bad start to the day but I fear the rain is on its way. As far as i know (as its still dark) the course is open and most greens are on, if anything changes I will post. 16 full greens on today.

Considerably better weather than the last couple of days although a lot colder. The course is open with a mix of full and temp greens, once we know how many of each I will post. 15 full greens are now in play.

Course Closed

Unfortunately due to the poor weather conditions today, the course will be closed for the rest of the day.

Another very wet night and damp morning meaning the course is open but most likely with some temporary greens, inspection still currently being carried out. 9 full greens and 9 temp greens in play

Incredible sunrise over the practice area this morning. Conditions are currently pretty good for the time of year. Dry with not much wind and not too cold.

Not the best start to the day/week! The course is holding up well and is currently open though this may change if the rain continues. An Update will be posted if there is a change to the course status.

Course Open.

Course reopening after the greenkeepers inspection. No buggies will be on today due to the still wet underfoot conditions.

As always the club are supporting the Scottish Poppy appeal. Due to the Bar being closed these will now be available from the Pro Shop. #scottishpoppyappeal #scottishpoppy #glasgowgolf #scottishgolf #cowglengolf #cowglengolfclub

Closed

Conditions are currently absolutely horrendous so probably not surprising that the course is closed

Not a great start to the day but great to see how far the greens have come on since the aeration work when they were hand cut a couple of days ago.

Work at 8 continues

Work continues on clearing the slope at the 8th to significantly improve the aesthetics and playability of our signature hole. It would be fair to say that the guys have come across the odd ball here and there during this work!

A mild and dry start to the day, hopefully it stays like that for the rest of the day after all the rain this week. Unfortunately no buggies.

It's a lovely start to the day with clear skies at the moment. However, it is cold just now, hopefully once the sun comes up it will warm up abit. It looks like it will be a great day for a game.

Major Drainage Project Underway

Work commenced yesterday and is well underway on a major project to improve drainage on the first hole and bottom part of the course that will hopefully mean that flooding in this area will be a thing of the past.

Fairly strong and cold wind blowing already this morning. If anything hopefully it will keep the dark clouds moving and the rain away!

Frost

Spectacular full moon over a frosty course this morning.

Dry & cool

A damp start to the day but it looks like its going to clear up and be pretty decent for a game.

A very Grey and Autumnal start to the day and the rain is currently not too heavy so currently still very playable conditions.

Medal

Chilly one again this morning and there is a mist hanging over the course at the moment. There isn't a breath of wind so once this burns off conditions should be excellent for today's Monthly Medal.

A cold start to the day. However, it's meant to brighten up later on and there's to be very little wind. Perfect conditions for a game today.

Cold start again with fog in patches on the course. All greens back in play following the aeration work during the week.

Very cold at the moment and quite foggy in parts of the course. Hopefully this will clear once the Sun gets up and we get another day like yesterday. Buggies will be in play.

Aeration

Aeration work almost complete. 15 greens now back in play, only the 14th 15th & 16th to finish.

Cold Start

Another cold morning with a dew covering much of the course. Just a reminder that greens 1,2,3,4,8,9,11,12 and 17 are all back to full greens. Michael hopes to have most of the other full greens back in play by the end of the day.

What a difference from yesterday! Yet another very week night with 10mm of rain falling between 4am and 6am. The course is open however no buggies will be permitted.

Unfortunately but probably not surprisingly the decision has been taken to close the course.

Miserable!

An absolutely miserable morning! The course is open but the forecast is not good for the rest of the day.

Conditions are currently absolutely perfect for today's Stroke competition.
