    I'm starting to get, what I call the ripple in my cleanup passes on my greens.  How can I get rid of this, and prevent it from happening?

    Gary  triplex or hand mowing ? either could be not enough top dressing , observe the guy top dressing with spinner , maybe switching of belt delivery too early and over tiem measn the perimeter can have appreaciably less sand than main part of green, if its Paspalum you see ripple alot if the top dressing isnt at very frequent .

    two euro cents

    Triplex mowers and I only have a belt feed top dresser and I use a drag mat then a brush to work it in.  My greens are all fescue with a little bent rye.
