Just starting my backyard putting green. Much smaller area but I'm limited by slope of my yard. I'm in Northern Ohio, good to see a fellow Georgia Bulldog.
I've been looking at my Scott's and with a little grinding on the back edge of the roller mount and some new holes it appears I can get it down to 3/16"
Your first mistake was cutting around it first, always cut your stripes first. Second mistake is using rye grass for a putting green.. the mower can get lower than. 5 you just have to be creative. I appreciate your attempt but that will never roll true
What the heck r u doing? I don't see any difference? R u using putting green grass of just lawn grass cut low w sand added? Does the Sand need rolling?
yeah, so i have the push reel mower, it will only cut down to .5 inche, i have sanded it and rolled a couple times. Once i get the greens mower it will be more of putting green height. at least .25. We do use all the time for putting and chipping. Rolling about a 1 or 2 on the stemp meter :)

Just found your channel and subscribed! I’m trying a similar project and you definitely helped me out! Thank you
Any update with some putts?
Yeah, we have used it a good bit! Still need to get to greens height.
Nice leveling rake man! You sure that sucker doesn't go lower?
Nope! Need a greens mower!
@@griffturfcare5061 go for it. You can find some miss priced gems out there.
How low does the reel mower go?
Hey, yeah, goes down to .5 inch, not sure if there is a way to modify to .25. But would be happy at .25
