Spray Caddie Golf Cup Cover
Developed by a golf course superintendent, Spray Caddie, an innovative new golf course maintenance tool that keeps the golf cup clean during spray apps and topdressing, will make its debut at the Golf Course Superintendents Association of America (GCSAA) Conference & Show in San Diego next month.
Until now, there has been no standardized way to shield the golf hole from liquid spray apps and topdressing. Some superintendents stuff a rag into the cup or use some sort of plug-in the hole. The Spray Caddie Golf Cup Cover offers a better solution in a touch-free tool.
Spray Caddie Golf Cup Cover is a flat, round cover that, when placed over the golf hole, shields the inside of the cup from liquid overspray and sand from topdressing. Metal tabs on the cup cover attract a magnetic wand (sold as part of the Spray Caddie Starter Kit) that allows for no-touch deployment and retrieval of the cup cover. As there is no need to actually touch the cup cover, hands or gloves stay dry so there’s no transfer of chemicals to gloves, hands, spray rig steering wheels, or cell phones used to remotely turn irrigation systems off and on. Spray Caddie Golf Cup Cover is made of recycled plastic and is manufactured in the United States.
Spray Caddie was developed by Rob Roberts, an assistant golf course superintendent and licensed spray tech in Washington State with more than 25 years of experience. Rob struggled for years to devise a cup cover that would make his daily job easier. Once he finalized the Spray Caddie design, he wanted to share it with the golf industry. The product is patent pending.
“I’ve been using the Spray Caddie Golf Cup Cover system on my golf course for years, refining it as I went along. Every time I used it, it became more evident how easy and useful it is. I am so excited to share it with other superintendents and spray techs,” said Rob Roberts, president of Back Nine Boys, LLC, makers of Spray CAddie.
Rob’s partner in Spray Caddie is his wife, Stacie Zinn Roberts, an award-winning, widely published writer in the golf industry and marketing professional in the golf/turf space.
