Great Falls, MT: Lawn mowing robots for golf course fairways and rough, freeing crew hours for greens

44°FClear in Great Falls right now

Lawn mowing robots can handle the fairways and rough at a Great Falls golf course while nobody sits on a mower seat. The machine follows the same mapped lines and holds the same cut height from one morning to the next, which is hard to get when mowing rotates between different operators. The long driving passes that used to fill a crew's day can go toward the work golfers actually notice.

Filling a riding mower seat all summer is hard for many courses, and it is often the first job left empty. A mower on a set route takes that seat off the daily schedule, so the crew can put its time on bunker faces, green edges and tee work. Nobody has to show up early just to start the first fairway pass.

Most turf around Great Falls is cool-season grass, so growth runs strong through the cool spring, then slows when July heat and dry wind arrive. Wind is the thing to plan for here, since it dries fairways and rough fast and makes a long riding pass feel even longer. Play is heavy during the day, so a robotic mower that runs fairways at night or in the early morning keeps mowing out of the way of tee times and any event you host.

The same kind of mower fits other large lawns around town too. School and college campuses, city parks, corporate grounds and sports fields all have big turf areas that get cut on a regular schedule. A robotic mower for sports fields can keep an even cut on open ground between practices and games, so the grounds crew is not tied up on a tractor during the day.

Who does what in Great Falls

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 Great Falls: city parks, school and college grounds, corporate campuses, and athletic fields.

How it works in Great Falls

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.

Common questions

The Old Farmer's Almanac puts the last spring frost near May 18 and the first fall frost near September 23 for Great Falls, about 127 frost-free days. Frost can still show up in May, so early passes need a check of the forecast first. Our free site assessment includes agreeing mowing times with the superintendent, so the schedule starts from your season and not from a guess.
