@jr4956 @ATurfMan @CycloneTurf Seems that way with every thing soccer related!

[Alyson Painter @alysonpainter]

Questions for college sports field managers: what height of cut do you keep your soccer fields at? Which type of mower, reel or rotary? What division?

[Alyson Painter @alysonpainter]

@ATurfMan @jr4956 @CycloneTurf I use pgr’s on both

[Alyson Painter @alysonpainter]

@ATurfMan I’m using a JD 8800A TerrainCut and mowing at 1.5”. Not collecting clippings.

[Alyson Painter @alysonpainter]

@ATurfMan I’ll have to mess around with my mower and see if the coaches even notice a difference!

[Alyson Painter @alysonpainter]

@ATurfMan Know anyone who is using a rotary and cutting at 1.5”? Trying to see if anyone is in the same boat as me with equipment and budget restrictions

[Alyson Painter @alysonpainter]

@ATurfMan This is good to know! I had a coach ask to lower the height on their practice fields so I’m trying to get some info to see what other people do! Thanks guys!

Finally! A break from this heat! Forecast is calling for cloudy weather the next two days. This is such a relief 🙌🏻 #doingmyraindance #clouds #happygirl #fallisfinallyinsight

@cconci13 It’s been pretty bad the last few weeks with some of the local fires we’ve had but we’ve been pretty lucky this summer.

@BaerDG1 [email protected] thank you! Any info is much appreciated!

Whitman is looking to install a synthetic turf field. Any recommendations for equipment necessary for maintenance? Would anyone be willing to email/call about some questions regarding cost of operation and equipment?
