I spent 35 years in the business and I remember thinking many years ago, about this type of cup cutter

I'd like to see the results when the plug is put into an old hole. Replacing the plug back into a freshly cut hole will yield a better result than with an old hole. Also some testing in wet/dry soil conditions, and Id like to know if it consistently pulls the same plug depth across battery life. Great design though, Ive often wished for more automation after weeks of cutting cups every morning!

Very impressive for set-up, especially on summer days. For the skeptics, it's a useful tool especially where the "Armstrong" method just doesn't cut it . . . sign me up, as I'd love to try this machine.

It's very nice, i just moved 18 holes with it today, it took about 1½ hours. I can only recommend it for all golfcourses

There are dual bubble levels on the machine to make sure on any sort of slope you are cutting a completely straight cup. Line up both bubbles and cut, perfectly straight every time

That is pretty slick. What about pulling original cup out? That screws my back up every time. We have a couple of clay/soil mixed greens that are tough. Can also be like a suction cup, holding cup in when you try to pull it out.

Wanda you forgot along with being slow and heavy, it’s run by battery, could you imagine after 15/16 holes the damn thing dies on you and have to go back to the shop for the Armstrong cutter and then do the last couple holes after the lazy mans ecutter died on ya lol as a greenskeeper myself, I’d rather have the money from the budget invested in other areas of our job than on this useless piece of equipment.

Thanks tons, you seem to know about this. I went to a golf course near my house, I left my resume and applied for caddying, they told me they were going to call me, I'm still waiting for the call but I'm afraid they won't call me, so If they don't, I'd like to apply for greenskeeping, but I'd like to know if I need to know anything, will they train me for free? or will I work for free for a month until I learn? can u tell me how to apply and modify my resume? thanks in advance.

It takes years to learn everything on a golf course, not just 1 week. Superintendents who have been working on golf courses their entire lives are learning every day. You should try it out for a summer and see how you like it. It is a great job, but definitely not for everyone.

Looks interesting, but even though it seems to cut good, I can see scuff marks from your feet outside of the plate! I would be curious to know how long the battery life is! To me, it seems like it might not be worth it! It might look OK, but, some things might make a lazy worker! I like the old way better!

Most home lawn grass is not suited to be cut at such a low height. And why would you want too anyways. You are putting excessive amounts of stress by cutting grass so short. Also, in order to cut low you must use a reel mower. Keep your home lawn around 2- 2 1/2 inch. You will be much better off.

I worked for a fence company for 3 years, and I’ve worked golf maintenance for 3 years. I can tell you that a cup cutter is not near wide enough to support the weight of privacy or chain link fences. Good thought though.

HydrossGaming the grass used on greens tees and fairways is usually a type of poa or bentgrass. These grasses grow more horizontally than vertically. Also alot of care goes into keeping that grass green. Aeration, verticutting, lots of fertilizer and water, and time. And for some reason fungus and disease love super short fertilized grass so there are chemicals needed for that. Dont know how big your lawn is but for an average suburban lawn you are prob looking at over $2000 a year just to keep it alive. Also you need to cut with a reel mower. Those are pricey about 20000 for a new 70"wide toro rider 12000 for a 24" walk behind. and proper maintenance requires reel mower specific tools...reel grinder,bedknife grinder, lapping machine. For a home lawn 2.5-3" is perfect and wont take up all of your time and hard earned money

This seems pretty unnecessary and a waste of money. I could see maybe using it on clay greens. But if your golf course has clay greens, then you have bigger issues to worry about then cup cutting. And what happens when the battery dies before you have all the holes changed? I would assume it is a rechargeable lithium ion. Just my thoughts.

Ryan Krebs why? I work grounds crew for an 18 hole course and we send 2 guys out in the morning to cut cups and change tee marker position and it takes about 2hr. 1hr 30 is spent cutting cups. It is hard work, it kills your back, and cutting(9) 9"deep 5"round holes with a manual cutter isnt fun to do first thing in the morning. This would probably cut the time needed to cut cups in half, save greenskeepers the back pain, and make the work way more enjoyable. I wish 2 of these could make their way into the maintenance budget sometime soon
