Slicing the Roughs

To help alleviate compaction in the roughs due to cart traffic, we use a combination of slicing blades and hollow core tines. The turf is greening up, but not actively growing. So we are using the slicing blades, which helps short term to relieve compaction. Once the soil temperature is warm enough to promote growth, we will switch to the hollow tines. We will perform this throughout the year and it will greatly reduce compaction in these areas.
