The Need for More Maintenance Vehicles

I came across this video today looking through some of my pictures from last summer.  I find it fun to do that this time of year, the thought of green grass is so far out of mind right now that you start to need a bit of a reminder that there actually is a golf course out there, and summer really does exist!

Anyway, I shot this video last July after we core aerified the putting green.  We needed to use our buffalo blower to clear some of the debris off before we could topdress it, and low and behold, all of our maintenance carts were being used out on the course by the rest of the crew.  Fortunately, Andy rose to the occasion and was literally the "workhorse" of the crew that day.


That being said, we do need an additional utility vehicle for the maintenance fleet here soon.  If anyone has a line on an old 70's jeep or something I wouldn't be too picky...

  1. I would like to applaud Sam, Andy & their crew for all their hard work. The list of improvements throughout the course is nothing short of remarkable. This Blog is both interesting and inspiring. An Additional "Shout-Out" to "Gunner" for all of his help ($$$) and insight and I would urge everyone to seek out this timid, shy man and shake his hand and thank him for all he's done for the Club over the years. Thanks !
