Of new Wiedenmann Terra Spike GXi6
A key requirement of Windlesham GC Course Manager, Alastair Higgs when he searched for a new deep tine aerator was a machine that could readily follow ground contours.

With more than its fair share of tiered greens dealers T H White of Reading recommended both the Wiedenmann Terra Spike GXi6 and the GXi8 HD at 1.4m and 1.8 m wide respectively.
"Both machines were really great but the slightly smaller machine won out because it offered the unique three-part rear roller so more floating heads. Even coming over a severe slope it was incredibly consistent with no surface disturbance," said Alastair Higgs.
Alastair, who joined the Bagshot course in 2012, is no stranger to the Terra Spike. "I've used Wiedenmann equipment at my previous two clubs and you definitely get what you pay for. You might outlay a little bit more at the beginning but superior build quality means cost-per-use it works out cheaper in the end."
