Why Robotic Mowing?
More and more golf clubs are making the move to robotic mowing, and for good reason. Here’s why:
Healthier Grass, Better Play
Robotic mowers trim the grass daily, creating a finer cut and promoting stronger, healthier turf
Eco-Friendly Operations
Electric mowers significantly reduce emissions and noise pollution compared to traditional gas powered machinery.
Efficient Grounds Management
With mowing handled automatically, the grounds team can focus on other vital tasks like irrigation, landscaping, and bunker maintenance
“At The Heron Country Club we have worked with AMS for a number of years since their installation of robotic mowers at our driving range, and they have recently expanded their service of robotic mowers to all 27 fairways on the golf course.
The automation has resulted in an improved quality of grass cutting and savings in resources and bills.
AMS provide an excellent service and we would highly recommend.”
