Completing the‘ Nott’ s Triangle’, a Baroness LM315 and LM551 fairway mower, four LM56 and two LM66 hand mowers are keeping maintenance on course at Sherwood Forest Golf Club.“ It was during the COVID pandemic that we were first introduced to Baroness in our hunt for a new fairway mower” says Deputy Head Greenkeeper Keir Taylor.“ Where lead times for other brands were ludicrous, we were able to get our hands on Baroness in good time – and what a decision that turned out to be! The build quality, the cut quality and all-round operator experience is fantastic. The maintenance, in particular the need to grind the blades, is straight forward and is needed much less often than we’ re used to with other brands” he adds.
Ben, Shaun and Keir also note the fantastic advice and support from James Robson and the wider team at Henton & Chattell.“ The back-up with every machine is excellent. If we have a question you can guarantee it’ ll be answered quickly and easily either over the phone or in person” Keir says.“ The team are always friendly and, alongside Andy Darley from Baroness, they’ ve together been a great help and support in my step up to the head role” Shaun concludes.
