Trust the Process

 Sorry Sixers fans, we're definitely not talking about "that" process.  No, we are referring to the aerification process we do each year on the fairways.   


As we continue to make adjustments, one common theme we've found is that in this case, bigger isn't better.  For example, while a tractor-mounted aerifier may seem to be more productive, the walking aerifiers are more maneuverable.

Yes, the way we go about the cleanup process, is definitely labor-intensive.  Again, could we use a tow behind or tractor-mounted blower?  We could, but those just don't provide the same quality of finished product that a team of 10 backpack blowers do.



While rain is not our friend during the actual hole-punching, afterwards we always seem to need one good rain event to get everything evenly wet.  To date, this summer has either been feast or famine when it comes to precipitation!
