Ramside Hall Hotel and Golf Club purchases five Jacobsen Eclipse 322 Hybrid Green Mowers
Certified Pre-Owned mowers bring consistency of cut to greens and tees at Durham's premier golf resort.
Ramside Hall Hotel and Golf Club, one of the top courses in the north east of England, has purchase five Jacobsen Eclipse 322 hybrid triplex mowers using Ransomes Jacobsen's Certified Pre-Owned scheme.
Delivered early in the season by local dealer, Rickerby Ltd, the mowers are being used to maintain the tees and greens on the Prince Bishops course and the recently opened nine holes on the new Cathedral course.
Roger Shaw has been course manager at Ramside since it was built in 1993. Commenting on the new mowers he said,
"Jacobsen's CPO scheme is an excellent initiative and has certainly allowed us to take advantage of this latest hybrid technology at a cost that is very favourable for the club. The consistency of cut we are getting across our greens and tees is remarkable; we just dial in the frequency of cut and it's locked in. No matter who is driving any of the mowers, they all cut exactly the same."
Nick Scott is the club's head mechanic and has earned a high reputation for the manner in which he maintains the mixed fleet at Ramside Hall.
Ramside Hall Hotel and Golf Club is owned by Ramside Estates Ltd, who have began an £18 million scheme to add 48 more bedrooms to the hotel in a new facility that also includes a spa, a 25-metre swimming pool and conference suite. The new Cathedral course also has planning permission for 21 executive homes, with phase one currently under construction. The final nine holes on the course are due to open in September.
