Robert Ackermann

I play golf with a guy sometimes at the club. He fills every divot, his and others, fixes ball marks anywhere he sees them. He’ll also pick trash from the bushes. Sweet, kind, gentleman. Also a billionaire. Be that guy.

There's a lot more to good greens than just speed 👇

@BobWeeksTSN 🙈

I’ve never seen this but for the third playoff hole they are moving the pin!!

Ten year old Pure Distinction greens! So proud of my staff and members who made the renovation possible!!! They are so tight and true !! Cheers!!

@BobWeeksTSN Holy!

Late for his tee time?

@GriffithsJayson @GreenKeeperApp @PGRBill Jay wow, I cut rough backwards at times but reverse topdressing is next level🙈😎💪

Don’t hit the sensor…metal detectors are key when sanding and aerifying….using @GreenKeeperApp with our local data entries and it’s machine learning software tools to help predict E.T. water loss and input timings…@PGRBill 👌💧💭🤔

@GriffithsJayson @iTweetTurf Not a good look,…but real funny😂

@iTweetTurf Most golfers don’t realize the engineering that goes into rotor control…must have hit the cam on the pilot valve… 💦🧨

Not making anyone happy with this. Send him the bill. $350 for irrigation head. $10,000 for labor.

The USGA Moisture Meter instantly captures and uploads soil moisture, salinity, and temperature data to the DEACON management system where a color-coded pin map shows which areas are wet and dry. Make every drop count!

@intrepid_sole Ya hard, but 20+ and counting, so maybe not so hard for you💪👍

I’ve started 20+ communities and each time I’m reminded it is always so hard at the beginning

@ProAngleOhio @best_sand Great post. Seen it happen. #respect #staysafe

Shipping season is starting up...be sure you and others are at a safe distance when unloading trucks. Tip-overs are very rare but a shifting load or unstable dump area can lead to an accident. Don't take your safety for granted. @best_sand

@JJBenelli Those last two!!

After 13yrs away, 11yrs @CapilanoGreens, my family and I are extremely excited to return to Ireland. Bittersweet to leave a great country, club, membership, and most of all a fantastic team. It’s mixed with a lot of excitement to return to Ireland and an amazing new opportunity.

Hard sand is not the same as no sand! The reasons behind firm bunker conditions can be more complicated than you might think. Our @USGAGrnSection explains 👇

For Golf Goodwill this week, we share one of the reasons it's always a beautiful day in Pinehurst. One of the best people we know, and for many, the first face you see or voice you hear when you visit Pinehurst - the wonderful Larry Goins. What's the best interaction you've had at Pinehurst? We'll share some favorites.

Bringing back what ones was. ⁦@buildsmartrgolf⁩ 👌
