How many times do you think I said pure in this video?

It’s great to see someone getting so psyched and proud over the fruits of their labour. Well deserved mate. Good on you.

When i was in high school, i worked on the greens staff at our local 9-hole club that was over 100 years old with perfect bent greens.. We'd get there at 5:30am to cut the greens on Sat - be finished around 7:00am and have the first tee time at 8:00am... There is absolutely nothing better than playing freshly cut bent grass greens on an old golf course.... it spoiled me for life!

My favorite job on the golf course was double cutting the greens every morning. I got there super early, me and another guy would start on holes 1 and 2 and do every other green. So we'd each mow 9 greens. It's ALOT of walking lol. You wouldnt think so but double cutting with a toro which isn't that wide worked out to like 12-14 miles of walking just to cut 9 greens. I LOVED making the greens look super sharp and perfect. Super satisfying. Plus when you cut greens you also got to run the rough mowers all day after you were done with your greens because they didn't want to kill us. We got our hard work done for the day right off the bat and the rest of my shift I just put on music in my headphones and run equipment.

The green and lawn looking amazing for winter. It’s going to look amazing when the warmer weather coming back.

I remember when Ben mowed down to 5mm and said that was as low as he'd go

Amazing bro! been watching this whole golf course journey from the start! excited to see next year!

Man, I’ve been following your content for several years, and I’ve gotta say… I’m really proud of you bro

It sounds like Marios getting excited about how pure the cut is. 2:36

I know nothing about this but being 28 turning 29 this month and watching this.. I've turned the page I'm old now 😂 this is stuff my great grandfather talks about

Loving the 80's montage. Must be very rewarding to see the results of your hard work

Looks sharp. We had our first frost last night. My kikuyu is still growing in the back but my buffalo in the front has gone to sleep. Can’t wait for spring.

Go 2.5mm….I dare ya

Perfect dude for this job!

Love these. Looking good!

So much passion in this vid I love it.

We regularly have the our greens cutting at .09-.1in or 2.4-2.5 mil for entire summer. In central New York

That did look _really_ nice! Well done

Nice work! I think the speed is perfect! If it gets too fast then makes it harder to hold the green and less fun imo unless you are just trying to make it faster lol

I’m sitting here in 40°C - sometimes I forget the seasons in the opposite hemisphere is swapped lol.

Amazing. I wish my whole yard looked like that.

Wow, that is looking beautiful and it's cold!

I subbed simply because of how fascinating it all is. I've been learning a lot about soils and how they interact with the grass. I'm in Northern MN so I'm still not sure how well I could maintain my own green.

Absolutely pure brother!

Looking great! Need to get that roller back on it!

“I don’t care about green maintenance.” *watches video “I need that green mower”

Blooming lovely....❤

Ben you should use all those rocks you pulled out as retainers on the tees and around the dam. They would look awesome and re-use that material on the site

Mate, in the spring time please do whatever you need to do to bring the green up to a 14 or higher on the stimp meter. I was a gust of wind to be able to blow the ball from one side of the green to the other!

That's incredible. I've just had my lawn come through from seed now utting at about 20mm.. and that looks pretty good..then your video comes out 😂

3mm??? Now you’re just showing off!!! We’ll done Ben, loving the series..

Looking great. Epic montage music too.

Mate - sooo pure!!!!

The club I was at could double roll or even triple roll the greens. they did it once for "hard course day". The greens there run anywhere from 11-13 normally. Hard course day was closer to 15.

Can you please be the greens keeper at my local golf club?🤣 Thanks for the great vids and can't wait for the fairways.

Nice grass, when the Golf course opens 😁

Fastest greens I ever played was 13s at the campus course in College Station, they were unreal but I putted amazing on them and won’t the tourney I was playing

Woah!!!! NICE!!!! Ben Sims. 👌👌👌

Whoa bro, that IS insane.

That’s incredible

Gotta risk it for the biscuit, love it.

You must have warm winters. That grass is thriving!

Looks great. I know at my home course, when the sup verticuts and top dresses, they get pretty fast.

A Shot Gun helps with Duck Poo, give it a go and let us know what they taste like, we may be able to suggest better seasoning without Lead.

Ha. Great song selection for mow. Looking great

yeah man would be interested to get the stimp reading after proper rolling after the cut. Amazing condition you reckon the duck poo is contributing somehow😂

I need that Living Turf hat mate!

Hey Benjamin, awesome progress on the green. Are you having any problems with the worms? Or does the sand base subdue the castings. Second question... are you pushing more products on the plant than you normally would on a public course because it's your baby. Or is it the schedule you have learnt as greens keeper. I'm struggling with my bent at the moment with slight better temps

Thanks Ben that was one pure video 😀, but really interesting. Certainly a nice height gauge you have there, great work. Any idea where others can go to get one?

Lawn Tips Og goat 🐐

Come and do the greens at our golf club 😂😂😂 great content

Pure putting green mate! Trying to remember what seed you used? A-1?

Great job. Lookin pure! What bed knife are you using?

While working at Beaver Creek we would get the greens up to 12 and sometimes even close to 14!! Such a blessing to have had that experience. Very talented folks up that way full of passion for the art.

I used to do the same thing as this guy. Not leaf blow off the green before mowing it just because it was easier to see your lines with the dew still on the ground. until I caught a tiny rock and ripped a single line across half the green. never made that mistake again lol

I live near Lismore and the max was near 17 today and I was hating life as I work outside. Dunno about 6 😮

Anyone else get up engage dad dance when then awesome 80 synths kick in? Let’s get it!

Ben, what bentgrass is this? I am super impressed by it.

Dude my home course green roll at 12-13 in the winter. crazy....dare you to take it down to that level. haha

if you wanted to increase the speed you could try verticutting to thin it out a bit and remove some of the underlying thatch layer and then hit it with a roller

When do you get the cylinder ground can you do a maintenance schedule video

Hi, it's the USGA! We had a recent event in Rochester, NY. Can you swing by quick?

Very nice

I gotta ask do you prefer the John deer greens mower because it’s all you have? We use toro and when we used to switch back and fourth the toro would cut wider and easier to change heights.

Soo pure

Hey Ben . Greens looking awesome . Hows the kik coping with the frost .

Would you being back the green roller again or is that something for after winter?

Hey, what was the tackifier you used when you seeded? the one the canadian recommended?

Good fertilizer

I want my actual lawn to be that densely packed with grass.

A quick roll and a few dry warm days, easy 10.

Any plans to verticut to drive root growth and increase speeds?

very pure

Imagine having a front lawn that looked like that! Envy of the neighborhood.

Ive been building and managing pga championship golf course for 25 years. Degrees in turf etc. worked pga and us open majors for years. Augusta mows lower then an 1/8. Hands on knowledge.

Most weeks on the PGA Tour, the green speeds are in the range of a 12 on the Stimpmeter. For the Masters, US Open, The Players and PGA Championship, the green speeds usually get anywhere from 13 to 14 on the Stimpmeter.

my local course mows theirs to .14

Go for 12 stimp 🎉

I imagine your putting game is on point haha

you should put coyote decoys to stop the geese from landing there

You gotta roll it to really bring the speed up.

A few frosts? How did you go on Wednesday morning June 21.

How do you cut the curved edges?

Does he roll them at all? That’s what makes greens super fast too. My dads a superintendent at this course in chicago and they use fertilizer to kill the grass on the greens to make them even faster.

I’d you can, rent a roller and roll out the green! Would make them super fast!!

Need to roll this

i would pay 10k to feel this !

Mower level 1000; putt level - you’re just one of us 😂

Bra how do I get the music from 4 minutes in it was great

if you decide to come by Massachusetts someday, i’ll show you 2.6 where i work next summer

We cut 3ml every day west coast of Scotland Augusta defined dont mow at the same height🤣

Ben was that a Dublin accent when you said "disgusting " about the duck doo?😆

Very niiiiice

How much impact is the duck poop having on the N level?

Verticut can speed the green up?

I hope the frost hasn't hurt it.

Nice green, is your green creeping bent grass?

How good is green keeping, hey?!

It's amazing how Augusta gets 1/8" run at a 13.5

Do you have a roller?
