Today was a busy day, as I was out on the road with Ian Campbell, Campey’s UK and Ireland Sales Manager. We first went to a new client of Ian’s at nearby golf course to demonstrate a rough mower made by Baroness. The picture below shows Ian on the mower with the grounds manager and a Baroness sales rep watching the demo.
After that, we traveled to Stamford Golf Cub (established 1901, about 12 miles from Manchester city center) where I got to see one of the newest innovations in turf put through its paces. The Air2G2 (or GT Air Inject) is a self propelled three probe air injection machine that injects compressed air up to 12 inches deep into the soil, causing a fracturing effect in the compacted rootzone. The amazing thing about this machine is that it aerates the soil with no interruption to play. As it rolled along, I could see the green raising up slightly with each injection of air. After it was done, you could hardly tell that it had been aerated.
