We’ve all been there: standing in the middle of a job thinking, “Where are my tools?”
Golf course maintenance comes with daily challenges, and having the right tool on hand can be the difference between a quick fix and an all-day headache. Here are a few common situations – and the tools you actually need to tackle them effectively:
You’ve got an area that needs dethatching, but bringing out a heavy power dethatcher isn’t ideal. What do you do? Many grab a standard rake – only to bend or break it. That’s because standard rakes aren’t built for dethatching. Instead, use a thatching rake designed specifically for the job to cut through the thatch layer efficiently without destroying your equipment.
Tree limbs are a constant issue on the course, whether due to storms, deadwood, or clearance needs. A good pair of tree pruners will make quick work of damaged or obstructive branches, keeping play areas safe and clear.
Nothing slows down irrigation repairs like a broken riser with barely anything left to grip. An EZ Out Extractor is your solution for those stubborn, hard-to-remove broken risers, saving you time and frustration on essential repairs.
Early mornings often mean noise restrictions, but hedges still need trimming before golfers arrive. A reliable pair of manual hedge shears will let you get the job done quietly and efficiently before power tools are allowed.
