I am taking over the care of our two football fields. Everyone one likes to have a great looking lawn. We know the hard work and time that goes into making your neighbors envious of your perfectly mowed grass. Well it is time to take these fields to that same level and beyond! Bigger areas means bigger toys and equipment, but also bigger mistakes when I make them. This is documenting the journey to make this a premiere sports turf facility.
Backlapping our Toro 3100D Reel Mower
Our blades on our reel mower are getting a little dull. So I am going to be backlapping all three reels on our Toro 3100D Triplex Reel Mower.

Our Practice Field Looks Like a Disease Lawn with Snow Mold.

We have snow mold on our practice field. This is a disease your lawn can get when the surface layer of the grass gets insulated in a wet snow. We use our Thatching rake to cure this disease!

How long do you need for a complete soccer pitch? (7500 square meters?)
Fantastic!
What chemical did you use to kill clover/crab grass?
Liquid Harvest Mesotrione which is a generic Tenacity.
What did you use for killing the clover?
Do you think the weight of the tractor causes compaction in the soil? I am looking to topdress baseball fields I have 2 Eco Spreader 250s which would require a lot of walking to get done but would have a smaller footprint. I also already own them so I wouldn't need to rent or buy equipment. Would that even be realistic? I have done 25cu.yds. in a day solo with 1 machine. Either way, amazing work and a great video.
Thank you so much for watching. We are fortunate that our tractor has the turf tires on the back which distributes the weight. So we haven't seen any issues. I would say the Eco Spreaders would work great if you could find a quick way to reload them. That is the biggest time consumer in doing this is refilling the machine.
Made my friday a hell of a lot easier thanks boss 👍
No problem 👍
How to you keep reels going while not in seat also my reels don’t engage until you set it down
Fast forward to about 3:50 to actually see the Turf Tank.
Hello WhatsApp number please

Thank you for watching!

My grandchild 's birthday is July 4, 2017

Helps make the playing surface smooth and consistent!
@@lawncoachschallenge2390 for what Sport? American football? Soccer? Lacrosse ?
@@aaz9374 We use our fields for American football but occasionally have Soccer on them. Thanks for watching!
How bout drive in a straight line lol
It all works in the end!
I was just assessing snow mold on our field yesterday and was coming to the same solution idea. We don't have a thatch rake so I'm building a 72 inch one that will attach to the front end loader of our little Kubota. Question, what are the dark greebish blue spots? I keep thinking it's a fungus or disease but I'm not finding a solid answer. Is it just a secondary indicator of the mold?
I think it is areas that maybe had an effect of the snow mold but wasn't intense enough to kill that spot. You can see it surrounds the areas around the bad spots. Everything seems to have resolved itself now.
Looking great!
Thanks! It's been a great Spring so far!
Phenomenal work!
Thank you. This is time consuming and without the right tools could be very labor intensive, but is very much worth it as your can see and feel the results right away.
This is great. I'm doing the same thing, recovering a football field, in Superior, MT. Thatch and aeration are the big future struggle as well. I'm looking at top dressing with a top soil as opposed to sand to fill in my major low spots. Right now for clippings I mulch cut twice a week. It seems to work alright. I'm going to try dragging a light fence drag on the clippings to see if that helps. The biggest help for us was regular mowing, a proper herbicide and fertilizer schedule, and not over watering. Can't wait to see your field improve!
You are in a beautiful area. It's been a while since I have been that far West, but I believe the field is right next to the interstate correct? It is amazing how consistent mowing multiple times a week will help a field develop and thicken up.
@Lawn Coach's Challenge Yessir, right off the interstate. This is my second year assigned to the field. Being so visible, I'm really trying to restore it's quality much like you are doing.
I have been trying to find that tyñe of mower I have not been able to find it
We got lucky and our local dealer had a used one from a golf course here in the state.
is that a Rugby Pitch
American Football fields.
Another thing you didn't go all out on was weed eating around those goal posts. The fields look great though.
We actually did once we were to August and the paint stage. We just didn't all summer. Thanks for watching!
Where are the bleachers for the football field
The old ones were torn down a few seasons ago and they have just fund raised to get the new ones. They are here and will be installed by the time our season starts. Thanks for watching.
Great videos keep up the good work love the channel
Veri good machine 👍🏼
It sure is! Thanks for watching!
Our Toro reelmaster is 25 years old and our Toro grounds master is over 40 years old..spend most of my time trying to keep them going..parts are very expensive...a new mower would be a pipe dream for our club...👍👍
We were really lucky to get this mower from our local dealer who took it on trade from a golf course here in Montana. It is really in good condition. Thanks for sharing your experience and for watching!
Looking sharp!! Thank you for the content - I love the mow pattern.
Glad you like it!
Goood night- enjoyed~ you uploaded amazing job, 😲
Thank you so much!
The geese will add some natural fertilizer for sure
They really have made quite the mess.
Thanks
Looks great! Excited to see another summer of work. Only wish you had started this a decade ago!
I’ve been getting that a lot. 😄
If that’s a spike aerator it’s actually causing more compaction than good
It’s a split core aerator so it pulls out a core which gets split as it is ejected from the tine. Thanks for watching.
That’s an INCREDIBLE transformation! Great job coach!
Thank you sir!
Field looks awesome! Loved the guest appearances this episode
Who knew Coach Stanton was actually a farmer at heart!!!
Look at all the weeds, your definitely of awesome is wrong. For the coach you need to put down far more sand, that's just a light topdressing we use on greens to help maintain thatch and fill in small ball marks, not foot marks from football being played
I prefer top undressing
🤙 nice video brotha!!
Thanks Taylor. I appreciate it!
🔥🔥🔥
Also thought the squeaking door was a fart..
Couldn't hold it in!!! 😂
Good video brother. Great editing and camera work
Thank you so much 🙂
