Services Offered

Putting Green Mowing:

We mow the putting greens regularly to keep the grass at the perfect height for smooth play. This helps ensure a consistent ball roll and an enjoyable golfing experience. Rolling the greens also keeps the surface smooth and fast. This process also helps reduce thatch build-up, maintaining healthy turf.

Bunker Raking:

We rake the bunkers regularly to keep them clean and well-defined. This ensures that golfers can enjoy a consistent playing experience in the sand traps.

Proper Agronomic Practices:

Verticutting removes excess thatch from your golf course, while aeration is a method of punching holes in your soil, relieving compaction and improving the flow of water, oxygen, and other nutrients. For the very best results, DTE utilizes a tandem approach implementing both verticutting and aerification.

Hole Relocation:

Moving the hole locations regularly helps spread wear and tear across the greens. This practice maintains the quality and playability of the greens over time.

Tee Marker Relocation:

We relocate tee markers to distribute the wear on the tee boxes evenly. This helps keep the turf healthy and reduces maintenance needs.

Tee/Approach Mowing:

Mowing the tees and approaches ensures these areas are kept at the right height. This enhances the playability and appearance of the course.

Top Dressing:

Regular top dressing is one of the most important practices for producing smooth putting surfaces and diluting thatch and organic matter.

Fairway Mowing:

Regular mowing of the fairways keeps the grass at an optimal height for play. It also helps control weeds and promotes healthy turf growth.

Rough Mowing:

Mowing the rough areas ensures they are manageable and playable. This keeps the course looking neat and helps prevent overgrowth.

Customized Fertilization/Pesticide Programs:

Our fertilization and pesticide programs are tailored to meet the specific needs of your course. We use responsible methods to maintain healthy and vibrant turf.
