Based on my experience, and I'm far from an expert, although my wife might argue that point.

If you wait until they're fairly dry, a de-thatching rake dragged around slowly will gather them. After they're in a pile just get the FEL bucket close and just fire them in with a pitch fork.

Best of luck.

Funchy, that 'perfect world' does exist, it's called an Olathe Turf Vacuum, the problem is they start as several thousand dollars and go waaaay up from there.

The rake only has to have small enough spacing to gather the firm ones up, past that it's all personal preference.

Best of luck.

bmlekki, good idea, but alas, no. Golf ball picker-uppers work on trapping the ball between two carefully spaced revolving disc.'s, the spacing can be exact because golf balls are all made to an exact standard.

Beagle, I suspect the Horse Apples Funchy is trying to gather are a good bit larger than those your Beagle buddies leave on the lawn.

If not you definitely need to cut back on the amount of fibre you're feeding them, Laughing out loud.

We had a bad experience once using a sweeper to collect the offerings left when a Kennel Club rented a golf courses banquet facilities for a Dog Show. It rained on the last day, we went in the following day to do the cleanup.

Let's just say the rain-soaked, fresh material was not ..... condusive ..... to being picked up with a revolving broom. ;->

Best of luck.

Olathe, like most other turf industry companies, was bought up by Textron.

The link to Toro's debris handling equipment is listed below.
