Marking part of a five-year Total Solutions package with Lely UK, the T503, bought with cab, is the latest arrival from the club's rolling machinery programme, joining two other tractors on site, along with a full Toro fleet - all supplied by Lely.

Rated within the top 50 golf courses in the UK, the club's links manager Rhys Butler, says he evaluated comparative machinery in all key areas, including performance, maintenance, ease of use and cost, and found TYM was the best fit.

"We tested out all of the tractor brands suitable for our needs, but TYM came top, both with myself and all six of the greenkeeping team here," Rhys explains.

"We've been using it for a wide array of jobs around the club since it arrived, including verti-draining, spraying and trailer haulage."
