A new mobile app from Bernhard and Co. is designed to help turf managers ease record-keeping of agronomic practices and tracking playing conditions on the golf course.
Named the Turf Toolkit, the app allows registered users to enter model-specific information on Bernhard reel grinders, bedknife grinders and roatary blade grinders, and mowers (Jacobsen, John Deere and Toro). Users also can maintain a grinding log for each bedknife, including face angle and front face angle, and a mowing log for each piece of machinery.
Users then can also enter green speed info allowing for multiple inputs on numerous locations throughout the golf course and includes a selection to categorize weather conditions (rain, wind, clouds, sun, other) for each entry.
The free app is available now through the Google Play Store and will be available in February on the Apple iStore. It includes a section where equipment managers can track spare parts for Bernhard Grinders, information on producing better grass for less, company history and an FAQ section.
