@TonyTurf Haven’t done it on light topdressing but always do it in summertime for heavy topdressing. Blow to center - parallel lines and then split the middle like the Red Sea - outwards. Fills the holes nearly 100%. And a cleaner surface once done.

We are tickled pink to (officially) announce that Moe Robinson (@turfmow) is joining the TurfNet team on a p/t contract basis to add her energy, enthusiasm and experience as on-camera host of various podcasts, presentations and webinars... and probably a bunch of stuff we haven't thought of yet. We are pumped! #newera @TurfgrassZealot

John Reitman and TurfNet, I enjoyed your visit to FRCC. Me and many others face life challenges on and off the golf course. Thank you Peter, John and Jon for your continued support. It means a lot.

@Baroness_USA @DavcoTurf What used to take 13 guys with shovels & plug pushers now only requires 5. Redirect labor to accomplish more in the same time period. Find a way to acquire these units. Your staff will appreciate it! #noshovelrequired

As we head into another busy year on golf courses, the value of making time for maintenance has never been greater. Devoting a day, or even a few hours each week to maintenance leads to better playing conditions and higher efficiency
