Rainbird


Pictured here is the new line of irrigation heads for the golf course. This is the Eagle line of Rainbird. This particular head is a 750 which is an adjusted part circle. Unlike the old heads, this sprinkler only waters the green. This is exactly what I have been preaching about in relation to drought preparation. The ability to water hard lines on the golf course will not only prepare the course for drought conditions, but also improve turf health around the course. There are numerous times throughout a golf season where consistent playing conditions warrant either irrigation to only the green or only to the turf surrounding the green. By the end of the renovation we will have various control options to irrigate efficiently.
