Asleep at the wheel

Our earthquake decompaction unit is SLOWLY making its way to all of our fairways.  This tool was purchased by the club about two years ago, and it has played a huge part in the health of our fairways.
  It is designed to relieve the compaction, improve soil structure and improve drainage.  Typically, we earthquake the fairways in the spring, but we are doing it this winter to help in drain the fairways should we get snow and ice.  The toughest part of the job for the operator is staying awake, the machine moves at about 2mph.
