First Cut

Our first cut on the Heritage took place Wednesday afternoon.  After blowing off the surface we use a set of brush reels to clean them up.  We then follow that up with a different mower, which has a set of thick bladed sand reels.  This cleans up the debris and larger sand particles left on the surface from our heavy fall sand topdressing (completed for winter crown protection).  
Our next step is to raise the height on our daily mowing reels and mow at that turf level until winter recovery is complete.  Its like starting new every spring.  
We will complete this on Greywalls early next week

#14 Heritage must be walk-mowed for the first few weeks every spring because it is so wet.
