There is only one way to get your course “back in play the next day” and that's with thick-cut sod and SideKick®! It's the only patented machine that compresses sod for the tightest tee's and fairway's.

The benefits to using SideKick® on golf courses include:

  • Delivers perfect seams by compressing sod uniformly across the entire roll with its variety of compression plates.

  • Doesn’t rip or tear the sod. Unlike a crew- often more than 20 employees – pulling the sod with sharp rakes and spikes, SideKick® gently pushes it into place.

  • Eliminates careless labor and consistently performs flawlessly every time.

  • Improves the density of the sod by compressing it approximately 10%, making it thicker.

  • Nimble and efficient, it can be used routinely to replace worn areas quickly and efficiently.

  • It’s easy to operate. With its simple controls, a perfect field is as easy as dropping, sliding and retracting – and repeating.

  • It has speed that can’t be matched. It reduces the amount of manpower and other machinery needed, allowing us to work within smaller windows of time.

  • SideKick® returns the edge of the sod to a perfect 90 degree angle allowing for a perfect bond with the next roll, allowing for quicker grow in and recovery.

  • It’s recognized as an award-winning machine. It was selected as winner of the 2013 STMA Innovation Award for Safety.
