Senior Project Week 7 Day 2

Today the guys had a new task for me that I had not done yet. They had me operating one of the push mowers, and I mowed a portion of the greens called the collar or fringe. This is a specific cut of grass that surrounds the greens and acts as a barrier between the longer fairway and rough grasses and the short firm green grass. This grass had its own specific height that it needed to be cut at, so I was given a specific mower for the job. I spent the next three hours cutting all of the fringes for one of the courses. After I was finished I spent the rest of my work day going around the course emptying trash cans and filling the water coolers with ice. Below is an image of the mower I used today.
