New arrivals at Golf Course Maintenance

Monday afternoon we experienced a little "Christmas in August" as we took delivery of our shiny new Toro equipment.

Below is a new Toro 2040 bunker groomer.  We demoed this machine in March and were extremely happy with its speed and surface finish in our traps. 



Below is another bunker grooming machine.  This model, the Toro 3040 is equipped with several attachments that will help us be more efficient in our operation.  In front your will notice the push blade that is used to move, level and grade materials such as sand or waste area screenings.  On the side of the machine you will see a reciprocating edger attachment.  This will help us keep nice crisp edges on the waste areas.  We also demoed this piece of equipment in the spring and were very pleased with its ability to help us save labor and provide a better product.
 
 
 
Below are our two new Toro turbine blowers.  These powerful machines will be crucial in helping us keep your fairways and tees clean this season.  We demoed these blowers earlier in the year and their power is remarkable.
 
 
 
 Below is the Toro Versa-Vac.  It is a PTO tractor implement that vacuums debris.  This will be especially helpful during summer cultural practices such as verticutting and aerification, but will also help us during season to vacuum debris throughout the courses and driving range.
