Rick Krok is the Director of Project Coordination & Estimation at LaBar Golf Irrigation. He is recognized as a leading expert in golf course irrigation installation, and he also happens to be one of the first people to ever spread an EarthWorks granular product on a golf course.
Rick has been a good friend of EarthWorks for almost our entire 36 years of business. We look back and laugh at the times he had to spread our first generation of Replenish 5-4-5, back before it was prilled, and his days of being completely coated in chicken manure dust!
But rest assured, we also made sure to put his expertise to good use. We discussed where the irrigation industry is today, new technologies, and the newest software which is making irrigation so much more efficient. We also discussed how superintendents are selling their clubs on the idea of upgrading their older systems. A very informative and funny conversation not to be missed!
