Spectrum Technologies FieldScout TruFirm Turf Firmness Meter

To manage firm and fast playing conditions with consistency, superintendents rely on objective surface data, and the Spectrum Technologies FieldScout TruFirm Turf Firmness Meter delivers it quickly on greens, fairways and bunkers. Using a hemisphere impact hammer that simulates a golf ball strike, the instrument drops a mass from a fixed height and records the maximum depth of indentation so you can quantify firmness and compare sections of turf with confidence.

Based on technology developed with the USGA, TruFirm provides repeatable readings that help balance moisture and compaction, reduce ball mark risk and maintain predictable bounce and roll. Crews can spot check trouble areas, track trends after cultural practices and set daily targets for tournament preparation, giving premium facilities clear data to support fast, consistent surfaces across the course.
