Unveiling the ‘Lightweight Turf Rolling’ Time Capsule
The origins of rolling can be traced back to a time when the very concept of golf course maintenance was in its infancy. In the 1700s, mechanical smoothing through rolling was one of the earliest cultural practices, predating even mowing. Initially, heavy manually pushed rollers, hand-carved from stone, were used. It wasn't until the mid-1880s that lightweight, manually pushed wooden rollers found their way onto putting greens.
