Rolling Riviera’s Fairways
“Riviera Club Superintendent Matt Morton first saw the fairway rolling effects at Merion and
Rivera has since purchased
two Tranz-Formers. The long-term impact has not yet been determined, but Morton hopes to
reduce mowing and in
general, continue to shift Riviera toward the more sustainable Australian model of maintenance
emphasizing grass management that involves less consumption of precious resources.”

Getting on A Roll
“The reasons for rolling fairways are many, and often the same as rolling greens. The process
smooths the playing surface, reduces mowing frequency and helps provide a consistent playing
surface. There’s also the bonus of virtually eliminating a significant turf disease.
“I haven’t seen dollar spot in four years,” states Mike Dachowski, superintendent at Shelter
Harbor Golf Club in Charlestown, Rhode Island, a Dana Fry design.”

Techno Revolution: Roll On
“Green speed is no longer the name of the game when it comes to rolling, which has
transformed into a cultural practice throughout the golf course.
It used to be that greens rollers were viewed as tools to manage golfer expectations. "Oh, look,
they're rolling the greens. Everything should be smooth and fast today!"
But now, thanks to scientific research, more superintendents are using greens rollers to
manage not just speed, but the turf itself.
"We're seeing that at private courses all the way down to municipal courses," says Bob
Spencer, product manager at Amherst, N.Y.-based Speed Roller. "With all the research that's
been done showing that rolling makes your greens healthier versus just mowing every day, it's
become a regular practice at many courses. Rolling has become quite mainstream.”

Selling Against The Competition
“I’m always asked how to sell against the “other guy” and my answer is always the
same. Understand the other guy’s machine. Learn the history surrounding his machine
-- its faults, and its strengths. Be familiar with the people who sell it and the people who
make it. It’s like that old saying -- keep your friends close and your competition closer.”

Testimonials
Scott Wiiki @p0aanua · Sep 21
The #salsco roller really helps clean up the greens after the
first mow post-aeration.
“I Researched many PTO Chippers.
This product had great reviews and was
made in the U.S.A.. Salsco’s staff is
easy to deal with and contact. I
considered Wallenstein Chippers but
preferred Salsco because of the gravity
feed and compact design -- and again
U.S.A. made.
We have a ton of sapling over-growth
on our 34 acres and also needed to get
rid of tree branches from mature trees
used for firewood. Woodchips are also
needed for general landscaping. I really
like how well-built it is and the compact
design for working in the woods.
Clearly, I’ll get many years of service
from this Chipper!”
Sal’s Corner
“After 35 years in this business, I’m still excited at the
beginning of another year and what new opportunities
lay waiting. Will we see them as opportunities or
challenges, will we welcome the task and take
advantage of it or look the other way? Most people quit
just before the reach the goal.”
