Orange Park, FL: Lawn mowing robots for golf course fairways and rough, freeing crew for greens

74°FOvercast in Orange Park right now

Lawn mowing robots can take over the fairway and rough passes at an Orange Park golf course, so nobody has to sit in a mower seat for those long straight runs. The crew keeps the greens, tees, bunkers and trim, which is the close work golfers look at first. What comes back is time, and a crew member who spent the morning on a fairway mower can end up on the bunkers instead.

Fairways and rough suit a robot because they are large, open and cut on a regular cycle. The mowing can be timed for early mornings or overnight, before the first group tees off, so cutting does not collide with play. Wet ground and steep banks still need a person to look over the route after heavy rain, and to walk any bank that looked too soft to hold a mower.

Lush green golf course nestled between rolling hills and trees in a scenic summer setting

Warm-season grass such as bermudagrass or zoysia grows hard from spring into early fall, so fairway and rough cutting runs for most of the year and slows only in the cooler winter months. Summer brings afternoon thunderstorms that build fast, so the schedule should leave the robot parked on those days and let it run in the gaps. Hurricane season runs into late fall, and a storm can drop limbs across a mapped route, so walk the course before the robot goes back out. When a tournament or club event fills the calendar, set those windows with the superintendent ahead of time so the robot stays out of the way.

The same mower fits the other big lawns around Orange Park too. City and county parks with open turf, school and college campuses, and corporate grounds all have large areas that get cut on a set cycle. Sports fields are a strong match for a robotic mower for sports fields, since the mower can run outside game and practice hours and leave the edges and goal areas to the grounds crew.

Who does what in Orange Park

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 Orange Park: city parks, school and college grounds, corporate campuses, and athletic fields.

How it works in Orange Park

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

Afternoon thunderstorms build fast in summer, so the robot should stay parked on those days and run in the gaps. Hurricane season runs from June into late fall, and a storm can drop limbs across a mapped route. Walk the course before the robot goes back out. We cover the route, the stop rules and the storm checks during the free site assessment.
