Mower arrives
We have acquired a demo model Toro 3500D to replace the Toro Flail that we were using to mower around the banks of our greens/tees the first cut of rough and around green side and fairway bunkers. This mower will also be used to mow areas around the 2 putting greens and areas near the clubhouse. As you can see from the photos below the mower has 3 floating rotary decks allowing it to follow the contours of the ground and produce a much more even cut. The mower will also allow us to mow closer to the edges of bunkers and is a little wider which will save us some time mowing these areas. With our previous mowers that we used for this task you would have noticed some areas on banks scalped and other were the grass was 3 inches long. This should improve the quality of these surfaces markedly providing more consistent lies around the greens and first cut around each fairway.
