We normally flail our Eco roughs at the end of the year and give the 'out of play' areas another cut in May. This normally leaves the roughs at a good length during the playing season. This allows a golfer to find there ball but also to act as nature corridors for wildlife and insects. Other 'in play' areas are cut weekly during the playing season with this mower also.
The reason we have been unable cut has been down to a machine breakdown. Our head gasket had gone and parts for this machine have been hard to come by. Mean while the rough keeps growing and I keep losing my golf balls!
Here is picture of the zero turn going for repair
Here is the picture of our demo machine
Now we have a machine on site we will spend time next week getting all areas cut down and ready for the playing season and homes for all our wildlife including meadow grass hopper, bees, wasps, stag beetles and scarce silver lines.
Sorry for any inconvenience, we hadn't deliberately set the course up in a US Open style!
