Cutting after top dressing 2

Cutting on the first two days after top dressing was done with a tri-plex mower.  On the third day we started using a walk-behind mower. 

With a fair amount of sand still on the greens the blades of the mower are easily blunted. It is ideal therefore if you have two sets of walk-behind greens mowers so that only one gets excessively worn in cases like this. 

Our course has both a new set and an older set of walk-behind greens mowers and we only use the new ones when the greens are free from excess sand that was applied when top-dressing.
