Fort Payne, AL: Golf Course Fairway and Rough Robotic Mowers Free Crew Hours for Greens

66°FRain in Fort Payne right now

Fort Payne golf courses that want fairways and rough cut without a person riding a mower can use a lawn mowing robot on a mapped route. The robot runs the long, repetitive passes across fairways and rough while the crew stays on the greens, tees, bunkers and trim. Those are the areas golfers judge a course by, and they need hands on them. A lawn mowing robot takes the seat off the mower and the hours that go with it.

For a superintendent, the gain is who is free to do what. A rider mower can tie up one person for most of a morning, and that person cannot do much else. A lawn mowing robot can run early or late, when fewer golfers are on the fairways, and it does not wear down in July heat. The crew keeps its hours for the work golfers notice most.

Fort Payne has a long growing season, and the warm-season grass most courses here use, such as bermudagrass, pushes hard from late spring through summer. Summer storms can leave fairways wet and soft, so the schedule has to bend. Growth slows in cooler fall weeks, so the mowing plan can ease off. Around tournaments or big member events, the superintendent sets the mowing windows and the robotic mower works around them.

The same mower also fits other large lawns around Fort Payne. Public parks, school and college campuses, corporate grounds and athletic fields all carry big open areas that need regular cutting. A robotic mower for sports fields or parks can follow a set schedule outside busy hours, so the grounds are ready when people need them. The crew on those sites gets the same kind of time back that a golf crew does.

Who does what in Fort Payne

What the robot mows and what your crew does

The robot

Fairways and rough

It follows a mapped route, mows holes that are clear of play, and returns to its charger when it is done. No one rides it.

Your crew

Greens, tees, bunkers and trim

These stay with your crew. The hours they spent mowing fairways go to this work instead.

Other big lawns

Parks, campuses and sports fields

The same kind of mower suits large open turf around Fort Payne: city parks, school and college grounds, corporate campuses, and athletic fields.

How it works in Fort Payne

From site assessment to mowing in six steps

  1. 1
    We walk the course

    A free site assessment: fairways and rough, cart-path crossings, bridges, slopes, and where a charger can go. If a robot mower does not fit, we say so.

  2. 2
    We map it

    We map the fairways and rough the mower will cut and mark the areas it stays out of, like greens, tees, bunkers, and water.

  3. 3
    We set the schedule

    Mowing times are agreed with your superintendent around tee times, and changed for tournaments and member events.

  4. 4
    We quote the lease

    You lease the mower through financing. The payment comes in a quote after the assessment.

  5. 5
    We train your team

    One staff member learns to keep an eye on it and call us when something looks off. Servicing stays with us.

  6. 6
    We keep it running

    RoboCare™: 24/7 support with 10-minute triage, regional service engineers in every state we service, 3 check visits a year, and a 12-month warranty.
