    Anybody out there using a verticut & vertiquake process in place of pulling cores/solid tining?

    Being short on labor and reliable equipment has led me to rethink the process that has been done in the past.  Too few guys to pick up cores and our tycrops cant make it through 60 acres of fairway reliably.

    So my plan is to verticut - to remove thatch mechanically
    and vertiquake - to relieve soil compaction
    Then, problem areas/specific landing zones can be cored and topdressed reliably and properly on a multiyear rotation.

    I have seen it work in the Midwest, anybody doing anything similar out here in the northwest/seattle area?
