FULL Day on the Course | A Day in the Life | Golf Course Maintenance Crew | EP:44

Welcome back to the course! In this episode, we spend a full day on the course. I break down what it is really like working on a golf course. Thanks for joining me.

Love watching someone else do “my” job. I work at a small family owned par 58 course. I’ve been there for almost 3 years. I’m 19 & this is what I want to do, forever. I love being outdoors & getting dirty. I mainly cut cups, basic upkeep, take care of divots, & irrigate during the summer. Now just have to go to school, for my degree

[@fairwayjohn6336]

That’s awesome. Best of luck to you. It’s a great job if you have the right attitude…which it seems like you do. Thanks a lot for watching.

@@fairwayjohn6336 thanks for the response! Does your course have an assistant super? If so, what are his duties?

[@ryangirod6246]

Rutgers has a great program

[@tk-unc]

@@ryangirod6246 that’s where my superintendent went. I might be headed down that same path 🤙

[@ryangirod6246]

@@tk-unc taking classes there now, very fast paced

I'm an Assistant Superintendent at a Golf Course in Michigan, started watching your videos and it inspired me to start my own channel and upload videos on the day to day work flow, makes the job even that much better! Check it out brother!

[@charlesclose9442]

Just wanted to say thanks for sharing man! Just saw you were down south in Florida .. I’m just a 3wood distance away in Orlando, work at private club Alaqua Country club…well shouldn’t say work..more like hang out and get paid for it cause that’s how I look at it as I just looove being out on a course daily! Anyways thanks for sharing your days man, really enjoy your vid’s!

Them empty donut boxes hit hard! it must have been Friday lol!

[@danielkelly8756]

One of the little phone holder tripod stands so you can stick your phone down and show us you doing a little of each of the tasks, would be great. You could use the wide angle lense so you don't have to spend ages walking far away setting it up. Really enjoy watching these as someone just getting into it. Cheers

[@fairwayjohn6336]

Thanks a lot Daniel. That’s a great idea. Thanks so much for watching and commenting.

[@ThatTexan2002]

Love your videos!

[@jgray22]

Thanks for the vids, I might be getting a mowing job on a golf course in Montana. Now I have some idea of the work flow.

[@LawnTips]

Just love your videos man, so many memories come flooding back! Hope you are well and have a good Christmas!

[@fairwayjohn6336]

Really appreciate you commenting. Obviously love your channel. The property you have is amazing. I can’t wait for the golf hole construction…that’s going to be incredible. Merry Christmas to you and your family. Thanks for all the inspiration you provide. Just awesome.

[@ThatTexan2002]

yo mate welcome to another lawn tip vid

[@DicksSmallEngines]

Great stuff as per mate. Keep them coming ! 👏🏻👍🏻🔧

[@fairwayjohn6336]

Thank you sir! 👊

[@michaelhunt879]

I love seeing what your doing mate our cause just had vertidrain done new sorting out steps and pathway as winter projects re turfing around bunkers next witch iv never done before😁 your no1 fan mike

[@fairwayjohn6336]

Hey Mike! Happy Holidays. That’s awesome…sounds like you’re knocking out a lot. Laying turf is a good workout and kinda satisfying when you see finished project. I’m sure you’ll crush it. Thanks for watching! 👊

[@michaelhunt879]

Happy holidays to you too,bunker is all done a turf sorted.. ill keep you updated on the rest mate👊

[@highlightcenter7814]

What happened to the red Powerade?!

[@brogamerzzombies3133]

Where did you get the canopy for your gator?

[@margaritanitz]

We mow all weather, is it your grass type that prevents it or something else? We have a fescue blend. We are also still in construction mode (opening next October) so maybe things will change for us then.

[@fairwayjohn6336]

Thanks for the comment! I honestly don’t know the science as to why…maybe the cut isn’t as pure, etc. we had downpours coming as you saw in the final clip so it’s a good thing we stopped. Thanks for watching!

[@samuelasamoah6906]

Per your experience what will you prefer on the course if you had your way and why? Pine straw or mulch?

[@fairwayjohn6336]

I like mulch personally. I think it does a little better versus weeds and looks nicer. That’s just me though. Thanks for the question!

[@samuelasamoah6906]

@@fairwayjohn6336 that's interesting, what about playing golf in them, because some golf balls will stray into the landscape areas and players some times will have to play in them. Is it easy to scoop the ball from a bed of mulch?

[@wyatt9008]

Watch you every night before I go to bed

[@itsjusttruckcamping]

You have noise ordinance hours there? Club I work at does

[@fairwayjohn6336]

6:45am is earliest we can begin. We usually start machines at 7:00am to be safe. Thanks for watching.

[@itsjusttruckcamping]

Right on. Weekends are tougher. Can't use blowers until 9. Good stuff

[@ryangirod6246]

Have you gone to school?
