A new addition to our course machinery is the greens roller. This machine was purchased at the same time as the replacement mowers. The benefits of having a greens roller are:-
The greens present a much truer surface. Our greens, without rolling, have a surface with small irregularities. The roller 'presses' down these irregularities so that the ball runs 'truer' so that a good putt is rewarded with a good result.
Another major benefit is that there is one less cut per week. Why this is important is that every time that the greens are cut they are more susceptible to disease.
The addition of the greens roller will lift the our greens to a level that members have not experienced here before.
A less obvious benefit is that having the roller allows a significant time saving per week for our green staff.
