STREETTHUNDRA 315 this would suck to use. Slower, but also looks heavier and bulkier. Carrying this and your bucket no thanks.

Wanda you forgot along with being slow and heavy, it’s run by battery, could you imagine after 15/16 holes the damn thing dies on you and have to go back to the shop for the Armstrong cutter and then do the last couple holes after the lazy mans ecutter died on ya lol as a greenskeeper myself, I’d rather have the money from the budget invested in other areas of our job than on this useless piece of equipment.

Dan F as a grounds foreman for the past 10 years under three superintendents I've never had one that new how to do hands on work. They knew everything from class. That's why the superintendent using this in the video looks so out of place .

HydrossGaming the grass used on greens tees and fairways is usually a type of poa or bentgrass. These grasses grow more horizontally than vertically. Also alot of care goes into keeping that grass green. Aeration, verticutting, lots of fertilizer and water, and time. And for some reason fungus and disease love super short fertilized grass so there are chemicals needed for that. Dont know how big your lawn is but for an average suburban lawn you are prob looking at over $2000 a year just to keep it alive. Also you need to cut with a reel mower. Those are pricey about 20000 for a new 70"wide toro rider 12000 for a 24" walk behind. and proper maintenance requires reel mower specific tools...reel grinder,bedknife grinder, lapping machine. For a home lawn 2.5-3" is perfect and wont take up all of your time and hard earned money

not ever tried it for that to be honest

I worked for a fence company for 3 years, and I’ve worked golf maintenance for 3 years. I can tell you that a cup cutter is not near wide enough to support the weight of privacy or chain link fences. Good thought though.

Ryan Krebs why? I work grounds crew for an 18 hole course and we send 2 guys out in the morning to cut cups and change tee marker position and it takes about 2hr. 1hr 30 is spent cutting cups. It is hard work, it kills your back, and cutting(9) 9"deep 5"round holes with a manual cutter isnt fun to do first thing in the morning. This would probably cut the time needed to cut cups in half, save greenskeepers the back pain, and make the work way more enjoyable. I wish 2 of these could make their way into the maintenance budget sometime soon

I agree Ryan. It also looks kind of heavy to be transporting around for 18 holes.

Agreed

Scott Smelko because if you cut it right then it should take a quarter of the time it takes this machine to do it. I cut cups daily.

@Xtreme Performance His guys probably cut cups and dont take any shortcuts.

sometimes you just cant beat the human touch.

do you use the old push mowers instead of gas or electric ones?
