Mowers. . .

As of right now we mow the Fairways with three Toro five-plexes, which are ten years old. These mower's are very worn and are very heavy. We have to replace the bearings and bedknives on a yearly basis, which is both money and time consuming. They also affect the quality of cut and the health of the turf.


We mow the greens with Toro Flex 21's. The big draw from this mower is that is has a "flexing" cutting unit. This is a must for courses that have undilulating greens. They are also ten years old and are very worn. We have eight of these:



We mow the tees and approaches by hand with the Toro 1600 walk behind mowers. These mowers are also ten years old. We have 4 of these:



We are in the process of getting new Fairway and greens mowers. Once we acquire them I will post pictures and describe each one.
