Set beneath the iconic Bamburgh Castle on the spectacular Northumberland coastline, Bamburgh Castle Golf Club has been welcoming golfers for over 112 years. With approximately 650 members, the 18-hole, member-owned club offers a distinctive blend of links, heathland and parkland golf, creating a course unlike almost any other in the UK.

Maintaining that variety of terrain to the highest standard falls to Head Greenkeeper Gareth Pearson and his team of six greenkeeping professionals, who have seen course conditions improve significantly in recent years.

Supporting that success is a Hunter Grinders Jupiter grinder that has been a valued part of the workshop for well over a decade.

25 YEARS OF PERFORMANCE. ONE MACHINE. A LASTING INVESTMENT.

When it comes to reliability, durability and long-term value, the Hunter Grinders Juno speaks for itself.

At Elgin Golf Club, their Juno in-situ grinder has been delivering dependable performance for approximately 25 YEARS helping the greenkeeping team maintain precision, improve cutting quality and achieve significant long-term cost savings.

Head Greenkeeper Callum Forsythe highlights what makes the Juno stand out:

✅ One machine. Complete versatility. Sharpening both reels and bottom blades in a single, space-saving solution.

✅ Precision that protects turf health. Excellent cutting quality helps prevent grass tearing and supports healthier turf.

✅ Built to last. Around a quarter of a century of service is a testament to the Juno’s robust construction.

✅ A genuine return on investment. In-house sharpening reduces reliance on external services and delivers substantial savings over time.

✅ Support you can count on. Backed by Hunter Grinders’ ongoing servicing and technical expertise.

As Callum puts it, the machine’s longevity is “a testament that it is still going at that age as well. It shows you how robust it is.”

And when asked about the financial benefits? The verdict is clear: “It’s a massive cost saving over time and it’s definitely paid itself back as well.”

25 years on, the Hunter Grinders Juno continues to prove that investing in quality pays dividends -season after season.

Thank you to Callum at Elgin Golf Club for sharing his experience!

🌱 Why would a turf grower invest in a Hunter Grinder?

For Don Valley Turf in Aberdeenshire, the answer is simple: quality, control and reliability.

When you’re growing turf for landscapers, golf courses and sports pitches, a clean, precise cut matters. Blunt cylinders and bottom blades can affect the appearance of the turf and potentially leave plants more vulnerable to disease.

That’s why Don Valley Turf brought its grinding in-house with a Hunter Grinders Jupiter Series 5.

And the impressive part? They bought it in 1996. Nearly 30 years later, it’s still doing the job. 👏

For Managing Director Andrew Allan, having a grinder on site means:

✅ Keeping cylinders and bottom blades sharp
✅ Maintaining a consistent, high-quality cut
✅ Reducing the cost and downtime of sending equipment away
✅ Giving staff valuable maintenance skills
✅ Taking greater control over machinery preparation
✅ Supporting safer, more efficient workshop practices

And perhaps most importantly, Andrew values machinery that is simple, dependable and built to last.

It’s a great example of why the right grinder isn’t just a workshop machine- for a turf grower, it can be an important part of maintaining the quality of the finished product.

Read the full story of Don Valley Turf’s 30-year relationship with the Hunter Grinders Jupiter Series 5, including why Andrew believes service can be just as important as the machine itself.

Hunter Grinders establishes itself with a clear focus: building some of the strongest, most accurate precision grinders in the world. A reputation for quality, engineering and reliability begins.

2005 - The Series 5
The Series 5 range builds on years of experience, bringing together machines including the Jupiter Series 5, Jupiter ATI Series 5, Juno Series 5, Amazon Series 5 and Orion Series 5. Designed to deliver outstanding performance while keeping pace with evolving industry health and safety requirements.

2009 - Lloyds of Letchworth
Following years of strong performance in the grinding market, Lloyds of Letchworth acquires Hunter Grinders, expanding its offering to the mowing and grounds care industry.

2014 - Jupiter ATI
The introduction of the Jupiter ATI brings fully automatic relief and spin grinding to the Hunter Grinders range. It quickly establishes itself as a leading machine in relief grinding and outsells its predecessor, the Jupiter 2000.

Are blunt chipper disc blades costing you time and money?

Chipper discs take a tremendous amount of impact during operation, so keeping the blades sharp, accurately ground and properly balanced is essential for maintaining chipper performance, reliability and machine longevity.

Jupiter Grinders provide precision grinding solutions capable of grinding chipper disc blades, helping operators maintain the correct cutting geometry and blade condition. Accurate grinding can help ensure consistent chipping performance while reducing unnecessary stress and vibration within the machine.

For businesses responsible for maintaining wood chippers, having a grinder capable of handling chipper discs provides an efficient way to keep blades in optimum condition and extend their service life.
