Jared Olson, Head Groundskeeper @ Salt Lake Bees

Before our infield renovation, the skinned surface suffered from severe “chunking-out” and could get so hard that it was impenetrable by rakes and nail drags.

I had worked with Natural Sand Co. previously in Lake County, Ohio.  When it was time to renovate Spring Mobile Ballpark, I got in touch with Grant and we renovated the infield by removing the existing base soil and replaced it with DuraEdge Pro Infield Mix.

Since the renovation, our players have complimented the cleat-in/cleat-out effect…not to mention the drastic improvement in water-retention.  The DuraEdge infield has taken up to a quarter inch of rain overnight and still been playable by 1 p.m. the next day!

One thing is certain; I know what I am getting with DuraEdge Infield Mix.  Whether I am working in the Midwest or high desert of Utah, the materials I’ve received have been consistent.  

I know what I am getting, how it’s going to play, how it will react to watering, rain, snow, hail (happened this year) and how to continue playing though it.  We have been able to play through some of the nastiest weather Utah can throw at us in early March and April (rain and snow) and play.  With our old material we never would have thought about playing those games, but we’ve played through it all this year.

We experienced quite a difference in just one year of using your product. Our coaches are pleased with how our infield plays now---without a doubt, it’s the caliber of a Major League surface.

I'm on board with whatever you recommend when we send in our yearly sample. You have been nothing but perfect with your product performance...and we're on our third year now with you at Oklahoma State

Here's a photo of our infield during a game that was taken during the 5th inning. Since we only drag once in the 6th, it shows how well our skin holds up throughout the game.

John Turnour, MLB Head Groundskeeper @ Nationals Park

Grant: Last Sunday afternoon, we had a really strong storm come through the ballpark. The sky was clear one moment and the next like the scene from The Wizard of Oz when Auntie Em was yelling for Dorothy. The sky turned black, the wind went from calm to gale force in what seemed like a second and then the skies opened up, raining like I’ve never seen it rain before. Within 30 to 45 minutes, we got about 1.5 inches of rain.

To the credit of your material, we did not have a single puddle on the infield. About an hour after the storm, we were able to walk right across the infield dirt area. The next day, we were able to get right on the dirt to start working with it in preparation for our homestand a day later.

Your material has surpassed our expectations on many occasions, this particular one was very impressive to us. Just wanted to pass this on to you.

Chase Rowe, Head Baseball Coach @ LaRoche College (Wexford, Pa.)

It's the best ******* material ever made for a ball field!
