  • I first seen this robot at Carus Green Golf Club a few weeks ago.
    My First thought was wow, it will put greenkeepers out of work, but since making the video i understand that golf clubs in the future would benefit from one of these and save thousands of pounds, giving the greenkeeper and his staff more time to do the other important jobs that us golfers moan about.

    I don`t normally write comments on TH-cam, but this time I have to. I`m from Denmark, and we`ve had 2(3) of these machines on our golf course for about 6 month now. I work as part time mechanic in the club and know my way around machinery. Sadly I can`t recognize the piture painted in this video. We`ve had all sorts of problems and breakdowns. We have had to put up big transmissions masts in order to reach entire lenght of fairways. Two machines and two charging stations for 9 fairways. Our knives certainly don`t last that long. They get dull or torn off the machine if they meet a solid objects as rocks/branches/pile of dirt from animals ect. We have to check them on a daily basis to make sure everything is ok. As you can tell I`m not a big fan (yet). Solid improvements have to be made to the machines and software..........

    great little machines.
    Our local course has 2. one to cut grass on driving range and 1 to collect the balls up.
    our local range has large tractor tyres for aiming at and these just stop withing inches of them, turn and cut around the edge.. excellent kit.

    What a great video Liam 👏🏻👏🏻 like some people have already said the only down side I can see is vandalism but as a course purchased more machines over time the usage at night would reduce. using solar power for recharging has to be the way forward. The freeing up of greenstaff time for more labour intensive jobs has to be a benefit.

    So basic business laws here, these mowers increase base line costs as an outlay so 1, charge more to cover that 2, reduce other costs to cover expenditure, I think they are great they even go back to there charging points to sleep and charge, I've built little kennels for them at a rich folks gafe, (orange blob on lawn offended there eye) didn't sack gardener just reduced his hours. Tethered goats better at keeping grass in order but golf ball in head often upsets them.

    The beauty of automation is that it gives people the time to focus on those things require human attention. Now, greenskeepers can spend their time perfecting the greens, altering courses, or those other tasks they would love to be doing instead of sitting on a mower for hours at a time. Keep exploring the business side of golf in your videos; it's very interesting.

      I’ve seen these ‘gadgets’ come and go over 30 years of club management; from the promises of 50% savings on watering programs, to eliminating pieces of equipment, savings on chem and fert, to 50% savings in f&b.
      Thinking that this will not eliminate jobs is akin to putting your head in the sand.
      This is a great idea for a government golf course, but any Director of Agronomy or Golf Course Superintendent worth mentioning would only consider something like this for a driving range or possibly the facilities short course if you are lacking labor.
      No chance in hell of being proud to put your name on a golf course maintained by this product.

    Good Evening Graham and Warren
    You have overlooked one major 'con' in the use of these machines at night ie THEFT. Two men could lift and carry one of the mowers off. I wouldn't advise their use during darkness unless you beef up your security.

      They won't work with out the Dock and the mast which are both programmed to each machine.

    Only a couple of issues I can see with this, 1 if your out playing this can chop your ball up, (as he said the balls on the range need to be collected before it can start cutting) 2 the great British weather as you know we do get a lot of rain and our course is closed due to being waterlogged it is possible it could get stuck if mowing at night, just my opinion everyone’s allowed one 😊

    Nice idea and a huge cost saving ...but!.......... it takes away the evil from the greenkeeper for say a club champpionship when they narrow fairways just because they can ! :D ).

    It's technology Jim but not as we know it 😁 these machines are brilliant but have seen them get stuck when it's been raining relentlessly overnight, gives the greenkeepers more time on other course work 😊

    We had them at our course on trail, but I am not sure what they decided on them.

    Hey Liam, anything that helps a golf club work better for it's members and staff is a worthwhile investment. My business specialises in business finance and we have helped fund these type of machinery but not yet for a golf club. Would be great if we did more. Hope to see you next year when I'm back playing

    What happens if it's windy and debris on the fairway that's not spotted before cutting?

    They look great. Are the owners no worried about them being stolen at night time?

    Great idea but very stealable at night .Need Trackers on them if not already on . Some undesirable will have a go .let's hope all is ok
    Gives green keepers time to do more intricate jobs. Low level Drones needed to blow dew off on greens👍

    I realise that overnight sounds like an advantage. What will the quality of the cut be? As the grass is likely to be damp overnight.

    You asked about the pros Liam but didn’t press anyone re the cons. What happens to the grass clippings? Seems like they’re just left rather than collected. I’m no expert but wouldn’t that lead to issues with disease and excess thatch etc?
