Greens & Tees - Walking Mowers For Sale in United Kingdom

About Walk-Behind Greens & Tees Mowers

Before mechanical mowers and rollers started appearing on golf courses decades ago, it was grazing sheep and other animals early on that maintained golf course putting surfaces. These days, sophisticated walk-behind and riding greens and tees mowers handle the job, as well as mowing tee boxes, depending on the course.

Modern mowers do the job more quietly than ever while offering fixed and floating mowing head options and the choice of a wide range of cutting systems. Various fuel, battery, and hybrid power options are also available, as are lightweight designs and such features as adjustable handles to enhance operator comfort and machine manoeuvrability. You’ll also find tool-free height adjustments, onboard diagnostics and alerts, and manager control over mow speed and other performance settings, plus various attachment, roller, and blade options.

Walking vs. Riding

Greens and tees mowers are typically available in walking and riding models. The latter generally refers to triplex mowers, or those using three mowing heads. That arrangement enables riding models to cover much more area per pass than a walking model, which generally covers between 45.72 to 86.4 centimetres (18 to 34 inches). Walking models have historically been thought to produce a more uniform cut, thus ensuring consistent putting conditions across the entire green, although some brands’ modern walking and riding models use the same mowing heads.

Although riding models are quicker, walk-behind mowers can be well-suited for hillier courses and wet, slippery conditions where turf damage is a greater risk. Additionally, because they’re lighter, walk-behind mowers put less weight on greens, although they require more passes to complete a green than a heavier, wider, and faster riding model. It’s also worth noting that you may need a mower caddy or trailer to transport a walk-behind from green to green.
