BEACON ATHLETICS NEW TORO FAIRWAY GROOMER

Beacon Athletics offers training, conditioning and athletic field equipment to improve the performance of athletes and the fields they play on. Higher field performance, athletic training & conditioning, safety, reduced field maintenance costs, and improved facility appearance are our goals. Call to speak with our experts or visit us on the web.

The new Toro Reelmaster fairway groomer stands up turf and reduces grain for a cleaner, more uniform cut. The enhanced quality of cut improves aftercut appearance and provides a truer, more consistent playing surface. The fairway groomer also knocks off morning dew to minimize grass clumping and helps with clipping dispersion. In addition, the groomer cuts some of the stolons and runners, enabling re-rooting and regenerative grass growth. And when set at the full depth of 3/16-in. below the height of cut, it can also help control thatch.
