Fife Trust say they were keen to improve the quality of cut on their sites and in order to do so, they believed that owning their own set of grinders became the perfect solution.

The Trust also said that outsourcing all their sharpening needs was taking up a large proportion of their maintenance budget and therefore cost savings was a key element in the decision making process. This was in addition to being able to control when and how they sharpen their cutting units. The expertise and reputation of Bernhard and Company was also a contributing factor and in turn led to acquiring the new Express Dual 5500 as well as an Anglemaster 4500.

Paul Murphy, Golf Course Manager for Fife Golf Trust said, “I think the new laser set up will improve the precision and accuracy in what we do. Everything we have seen about the machine relates to the reason why we went down this route.”

Tom Johnston, Mechanic at Fife Golf Trust added, “The level of finesse you can get with these new grinders is second to none - and that all adds to the effect out on the course.”

Scott Purdy, aales manager for Bernhard said, “We are very proud to be supporting Fife, and with the added value of technology and remote support, we will be able to help Fife and other courses to improve their playability, turf quality and consistency.”
