Autonomous Fairway Mowers at The Club
On Wednesday morning we had a demonstration of the new autonomous fairway mower called the Firefly Amp. I have seen it at the nation conference and trade show the last two years.
Superintendent Scott Rhettmann at Walnut Creek Country Club in South Lyon, has been using them this season with great success.
We purchased a new Toro fairway mower for the 2025 season and have a second one budgeted for 2026 so we are in the market and the technology was pretty remarkable. They will be sending me many reports including an ROI report that we can input our own data to compare.
