The TS90 with TurfCup provides: • Compatibility with natural and synthetic turf • Seamless playing surface • Maximum protection against injury • Trajectory adjustment from 7° to 30° for true head-to-head coverage • Part- and true full-circle operation in one • Three nozzle configurations for optimal performance • Constant-velocity drive The TS90 Series Sprinkler with TurfCup provides the best features of on-field and perimeter-only irrigation. Toro Irrigation Xtreme Cleaning from Xtreme Turf Makeover Xtreme Turf Makeover launched in 2012, bringing synthetic turf rejuvenation services throughout the United States. Through diagnostic field tests and three levels of environmentally-friendly services, Xtreme Turf Makeover can restore an aging field's performance and safety conditions. The company's featured service is the patent pending Xtreme Cleaning, available with Level 2 and 3 offerings. With Xtreme Cleaning, they extract the field's existing infill, which is then filtered and separated during cleaning. After all dust, debris, sediment and yarn are removed, the infill is as clean as or cleaner than the original infill. The sand and rubber granules are then recycled back into the field, and additional infill may be added to restore performance levels. With Xtreme Turf Makeover, nothing is taken to the landfill; all infill and turf are recy- cled or repurposed.

Campey Turf Care Latitude 36 bermudagrass Latitude 36 bermudagrass, developed and released by Oklahoma State University, is a high quality, sterile triploid hy- brid adapted for use on sports fields. It offers outstanding cold hardiness and high traffic tolerance, with exceptional visual quality equal to or exceeding that of Tifway 419. Latitude 36 is an excellent choice for use in the transition zone and the upper region of bermudagrass adaptation. In its first year commercially available, Latitude 36 has already been used on the University of Virginia's football and baseball fields, UVA's track facility and the University of Missouri's baseball sta- dium. Turfgrass research, development and marketing company, Sod Solutions, will be the licensing and marketing agent for Latitude 36. Sod Solutions TurfCat out-front rotary with 60" fine-cut flail deck Jacobsen has paired its legendary workhorse TurfCat mower with the industry's only 60-inch fine-cut flail cutting deck. The TurfCat's flail deck eliminates unsightly rows of clippings on your sports field by discharging grass down into the turf for a more attractive after-cut appearance. The flail is also a safer choice because its downward discharge reduces the danger of thrown projectiles. The TurfCat tractor is popular with mechanics because its hydraulic deck eliminates the need for a gear box, drive shaft or clutch, providing a highly-efficient transfer of power that requires very little mainte- nance. In addition to the fine-cut flail, the TurfCat offers five other deck configurations, including 60-inch, 63-inch and 72- inch hydraulic-drive rotary decks.
