Today we rolled greens instead of mowing them. This roller is a great tool for us in many aspects. On a day like today where we had a frost delay it allows us to get out quick without having to wait on the mowers to mow. In the winter time, when we are watching labor hours, it is very helpful as well. We can use one man on the roller instead of three men mowing. Since the roller is wider and faster than the walk mowers, the man on the roller can finish in the same amount of time it takes the three men to mow. During tournament times we can use the roller along with the mowers to give the greens that little bit of extra speed to make those knees knock a little bit more standing over that big putt.
The employee on the roller is Jose Ramirez. He has been with the golf course for over 11 years. He is a truly valuable asset. He is our utility guy. Whenever we need any type of project done, he is the guy for the job. He has a great attitude every day and loves this golf course as if it is his own back yard. Thank you Jose.
