GreenTek Dyna-Corers help courses catch up fast on greens aeration
Published 18th July 2024 News
As we all know, this past winter was particularly harsh and wet. Coupled with the high demand for golf the moment courses finally reopened, many greenkeepers faced an uphill battle in carrying out their usual Spring Maintenance routines. The fallout? A lack of essential aeration during the critical Spring period is now jeopardizing turf health across many greens during the height of summer play.
Despite the generally drier weather we're experiencing, greenkeepers have also had to contend with some heavy rain periods. As a result, surface compaction which went untreated in the Spring is now impacting surface drainage.
The Summer Dilemma: Compaction and Drainage Woes
With the prime aeration window missed in Spring, many of greenkeepers are now dealing with the consequences: poor drainage and compacted turf that stresses under summer heat and heavy play. The usual full hollow tine aeration isn't an option right now for most clubs due to the disruptive nature and time-consuming process of this method.
Enter the Dyna-Corers: Your Summer Aeration Solution
Fortunately, there's an innovative solution that can help greenkeepers out of this predicament: the Dyna-Corers from GreenTek. This set of three aeration units attaches quickly to any popular greensmower, delivering a rapid work rate that allows greens to be aerated in a similar time to mowing.
What makes the Dyna-Corers particularly versatile is their range of solid and hollow tines. This adaptability means they can handle a variety of tasks, from surface aeration to thatch removal, making them an invaluable tool in maintaining turf health throughout the Summer.

One of the standout features of the Dyna-Corers is their efficiency and discreet operation. When fitted to a greensmower, they work so quickly and quietly that disruption to golf play is negligible. This means aeration can be carried out without the usual complaints from golfers about course disruptions.
