Rye approach 🤟

[@brycecarver991]

I know what you mean when you say pure. It’s almost impossible to get it on camera…. But we can all see the Rye glowing. LIKE HEAVEN.

[@MrEjablee25]

Soundtrack on point as always my friend

[@puttingtechniques]

Man you are rocking it. 😁✌️❤️🤘

[@aaronh4475]

A native grass (rough) between the two might break it up nicely and offer transition that could run around your dam?

[@hamishbindrinkin]

wow can't believe you've been in this place for over two years. How time flies. Loved every minute of it mate. Always a great start to the weekend

[@gastongianfreda5170]

Welcome to another cattle tips vid!

[@simo7321]

Love your video's. How about a couple of deep St, Andrews like bunkers, just before the green?

[@thesugarlipslove]

those rocks might make a nice feature somewhere around the course

[@markdeez6900]

Ben! is this all your own music? I reckon the soundtrack to @Lawtips deserves an award! Going hard in the 80''s synth funk lane, I always end up bobbin to tunes. 🔊

[@jakemechell7210]

Rye out to the stakes for sure 👍

[@velcroman11]

You do have a lot of rocks, really. You have spend a BOMB on your golf cause. I wonder why you did not hire a “sieve bucket” attachment. The advantage of the sieve bucket is that it picks up a bucket full of soil, give it a shake, the dirt falls through leaving the rocks (not perfect) but it makes collecting the rocks. 👍

[@jayhartmann85]

Loving the time of the welcome

[@BigBenAus]

Time to train the cattle to mooove when instructed!

[@aussieinkorea593]

Well done mate!

[@user-uw3vz3ic2s]

Rye grass out to the stakes!! Would look amazing!

[@TyTyTy87]

Shout out to the cameraman for giving us quality footage

[@LawnTips]

😂

[@user-pr6ft2wy7c]

I look forward to seeing the progress each week - amazing! I think the rye grass would be the way to go - particularly with the stripes

[@lisachesters4991]

Rye looks weed free now. Great colour. Well done.

[@briandeyette5071]

Bring the rye out but wrap the fairways with the rye also. That green surrounding everything will make it all pop.

[@Michael-AUS]

Yes, more ryegrass would be nice as.

[@Legendary_UA]

Beautiful rye stripes

[@tomcleary1198]

Couch all the way to the rye.

[@msabercr]

you need a grizzly rock screen. You dig up all the rocky fill, dump it over the screen, and the rocks get sifted out of the soil.

[@griffturfcare5061]

use those big ones as landscape rocks around the green/fairway area

[@TheAustralianLawnGardenP-ki2hj]

This video rocks Sorry I'll let myself out

[@xtractify]

Why do you think they are the only spots where the rocks are? I would think there would be rocks covering that whole area, use a sieve bucket attachment, way more efficient

[@jakestatefarm915]

I cant believe the equipment you have in you back yard

[@thomaspaquette9991]

Bump that rye out! It’ll look fire.

[@chameleonedm]

I like the idea of the rye approach personally, gives you more shots to practice with Look excellent as ever dude!

[@DRZOIDBURRG]

Looking great Ben. I'm no operator but it looks to me like you have the skills on the machinery now 👌🏼

[@lisachesters4991]

Keep the existing shape it looks great

[@BarrieMead]

Looking Mint! Might want to check the track tension on the skiddy, could be the vid but they're looking a bit loose and those things aren't cheap! Also, I say more Rye up to the stakes

[@gregcarnall9097]

Starting to look really good pal, cant wait to see it finished and a few course vlogs :) YNWA

[@bensmith-cp2zy]

Definitely extend the rye approach!

[@chrismcg7856]

Looking magnificent

[@jamesveasey8857]

Grow the rye out to the stakes and have an approach.

[@travishenley9584]

On point and moving well, but man I’m pumping for you to get a tip trailer to go behind the tractor like in the golf course days. Full game changer 👌

[@LawnTips]

I’ve been Keeping an eye out for one online. One would be so handy!!

[@Schanckas]

With a soil top dresser attachment too👍👏

[@adamleary9309]

Looks awesome mate!

[@mustt65]

I would do the rye approach!

[@eladsims4273]

Yeah definately do the rye approach...

[@calebevans8437]

Hell yea bro do the extra rye to get it popping 👍

[@TheMatusSVK]

love this videos

[@TG-zd9de]

I would have just gone full bikkie with the bobcat and spreader bar to find all the rocks😅

[@joshuacollins6124]

Bring the rye to the stakes mate!

[@stevenireland4069]

Ryegrass approach 👏

[@ivanc3654]

Love the Rye Ben

[@hamo4558]

Im in favour of extending the ryegrass out to the stakes as you suggested.

[@gannonbest7251]

The problem with bermuda up to the rye is just how far bermuda can run, but i like the rye where it is. I love bermuda though. Wound have been cool to see some tif eagle green.

[@mackeycharli256]

If you had teeth on the bucket you could tease the rocks out of the soil pile. Then open the 4 in 1, tilt it all the way over forward and run the flat blade along to gather them all then close the bucket as you lower it. Takes some co-ordination but you’ll get there

[@danielamey4605]

100% rye approach

[@mince07]

Rye approach!!!

[@markjensen6865]

Rye with fresh stripes would look mint!

[@antonyv8171]

I can’t believe how beautiful the rye looks after a mow. Sooooooo pure. Aren’t you concerned that the couch will creep into the rye and vice versa with clippings flying/blowing around? Also u mentioned butting up the couch & rye, won’t they creep into each other??

[@davidvesseur]

Rye doesn't creep

[@antonyv8171]

@@davidvesseur what about couch into the rye?

[@edh7492]

More rye 👌

[@user-rt1km7lk8l]

Bring the rye grass to the stakes their Ben 👌

[@conorcraig9487]

Please add more Rye grass!!

[@theavidhobbyist2911]

Rye to the stakes, no question about it!

[@themayor8730]

Maybe you could make the rocky areas sand traps

[@V8s_arecool]

I would put a bunker in the front there

[@harryhorne4451]

I was waiting for the new vid to come

[@LawnTips]

Had problems with the upload for some reason!

[@QkSgASYcGHX84pXLEvKm]

Do a sand bunker instead of bringing the rye to the fairway or the fairway to the rye.

[@rhyscrampton]

Use that 4&1 bucket to pick those rocks up mate

[@carlbird4737]

Yeah push that Rye out!

[@lukewoods5124]

Definitely bring the rye out to the stakes

[@dylan8285]

You plow into the pile with some speed and then flick the bucket up quick or (curl it whatever u want to call it) you still wont get 100% but a good majority of it. definelty give your self the extra buffer of rye between the Bermuda so it has less chance of getting in the green

[@derektestorff1900]

Just a suggestion, but it would be cool to plant some trees in there to make for a trickier hole. Granted they would have to mature first.

[@damianeason5252]

Id run with the Rye approach.

[@UncleDan69]

between the rye grass and the steak could you make a little river down to the pond and have a pump from the pond to keep water running give you somthing ti ship over

[@paulbrennan8301]

Looking Fantastic Ben 👌🏻 Do you have furure plans for the edge and surround of the dam?

[@MrThuggery]

I think Couch up to the rye grass. Lookin good young fella!

[@carlsmith653]

Are we going to see a rock built tee box?

[@Kyle-iz5qt]

Need a screener bucket 🤙

[@bradencorliss8288]

When did you get the cattle?

[@davidvesseur]

Rye grass out to the stakes.

[@ourdadstuffblakepannell8411]

Turn the approach area into a bunker.

[@MajorTnarg]

will you buy another house when we the par 3 is all done? I can't bear losing construction vlogs

[@zackbeaven8810]

I reckon a green at the top of the hill. Could do laps between them

[@arf8u]

That’s when he starts on the Par 4!

[@vegetarianfoodie9091]

More cool season grasses please

[@jakerittner1694]

Has that skiddy got a 4in one bucket i use ours at work to pick up rocks

[@arf8u]

More Rye!

[@timawn]

Anyone else shocked it's been 2 years since those clips ripping out the big rocks 😳

[@LawnTips]

Well not quite 2 years. Was September 1.5 years ago

[@UrbanSelfSufficiency]

Ryegrass approach, for sure.

[@prestonsmith6562]

That rye looks too nice to not add a little more of it.

[@mteske1]

How many acres is your entire property? It looks gigantic

[@kellyottaway7858]

Rye grass up to the stakes! Doooo it!

[@chevron916]

Do you plan to put the bunker/s in this year?

[@garycarter2523]

Bunkers last part ?

[@Schanckas]

Butt couch up👍 Santa Anna?

[@nickewing5774]

Do the Rye

[@natextreme_]

Wont couch creep into the rye?

[@benwilliams8866]

Been wondering the same thing! Wonder if he’ll put a similar plastic boundary than what’s around the green?

[@ldjl3322]

Can you not use the rocks to the little dam have nice walls?

[@LawnTips]

Definitely could and probably will do that in future

[@clintlester2336]

Increase rye area, it looks awesome currently.

[@timfarr369]

Rye approach

[@matthewpearce9108]

Fourth!

[@golfaddict75]

Mo Rye Mo Better

[@Striperman]

First

[@lamarr1986]
