@mowlikeachamp I had 2 cycle Eastman’s for a long time. They didn’t care the angle, where the true hover mowers would choke out. Ended up using a fleet of cheap push mowers. The crew liked them better and when they broke we threw them away and got another on. The lighter the better!

Important Mother’s Day question here! What’s the best Hover Mower to buy for bunker work?

@chuck_stccc @BendelowGreens I’ve been doing some bulk apps at Cog Hill. Dubs is a fun place to fertilize! And yup those tees are legit! Some pretty cool holes, especially on the back 9!

@EanDaniels I had a bunch of it. Amassed a stack of “repair” sections and bought a lot of Fernco fittings. I was always impressed with the guys that installed it years ago! Seams were generally perfect and tight! Built a good relationship with the local sewer company to keep them jetted…

God bless old clay drain tile. It’s all over this course and for the most part works. But when It fails it’s a pain to repair.

@GCIMagazineGuy Years ago I leased two all electric triplexes, a bunker machine and roller. Thought was to be quiet and no hydro to worry about. Big hurdles were operator and equip tech frustrations when they didn’t work right. End users MUST have support for it to work! Seems it hasn’t changed?

Left San Diego less optimistic significant self-driving golf mower adoption will occur in the near future. Huge service and support hurdles exist due to trained technician shortages at all levels of the industry. The risk of technical gaffes is top of superintendents’ minds.

“The UCC Family Table” arrived today. It’s been a two year project starting with the removal of a few Shagbark Hickory trees for the @JDRgolfdesign renovation project. We hired a local artisan Brandon to design and build a table and bench for the grill room.

Andy will be spending much of his time on sales and project development throughout Illinois. He brings tons of ball field experience to the company. It’s nice to have him “officially” on board (even though he’s been with us for years!) Hit up @AndyOmmen1 for any project needs!
