Force Rascal MVP

I am the baseball rep for the Altoona Iowa Baseball league. Recently I have been researching John Deer TX Gators for purchase with an attachment for ball field finishing. Although I didn’t know about your company at the time I purchased two TX Gators with Broyhill field levelers and hydraulic lifts since this is what they offered. I was contacted yesterday afternoon by our local John Deer dealership with the unfortunate news the electric over hydraulic lift is not compatible for the Gator TX. This presented a problem with being able to secure two new units for our fields. I quickly started searching Google where I came upon your Infield Rascal and was extremely impressed over the multiple uses of the tool as well as the ability to remove it from the Gator with ease. Secondly I watched the YouTube video’s placed on the internet from the link provided on your web page and quickly became a fan of the attachment. I contacted Roger Walterhouse yesterday evening just before your business hours closed where Roger answered many questions and took the time needed to explain the tool extensively. Never once did I hear Roger state you were closed or could I call you back during business hours. Myself as a manager can attest the people you surround your organization with, will ultimately decide the fate of your continued customer following. I wanted to write you this brief email and extend my thanks to the professionalism I was greeted with from the moment I called your number. It’s the customer’s choice to make the initial call to do business with any company; it’s the people they are greeted with that keep them coming back. I want to thank you for great looking presentation and quote I received from Roger. It’s nice to see professional result’s like I’m accustom to rather than the hand written, poorly copied and faxed bids I have received from other companies. Hands down your presentation and customer skills have sold your company to me and the Altoona Baseball organization. I am looking at the misrepresentation of the Broyhill units as a positive mistake that have given our league a better optioned and universal tool. I will be presenting the bids and my recommendations to the board this week for the purchase of the Infield Rascal.

In June 2010, the North Middlesex Recreation Department purchased an Infield Rascal…to maintain the field at a high professional level….(The Infield Rascal was then stolen)… Over the past year, the Infield Rascal professionally maintained our infields. The Infield Rascal maintains a safe playing surface that is free from bumps, ridging and high and low spots. It also maintained a softer infield surface that gave the ball a truer and much safer bounce. There was no need for multiple spikier drags, nail drags, leveler bars, drag mats and other tools. The Infield Rascal also worked well at removing the edge or lip that develops on the infield/outfield border. It had the ability to ‘cut’ weeds and grass at the roots that grows in our infields….Without the use of the Infield Rascal, all infield surfaces become harder, which will cause a hazardous hop to the ball. Bumps, ridges and high and low spots will also become more apparent. These hazards could cause injury to the participants. Staff will be required to remove the weeds and grass, by hand, that will grow in our infields, increasing staff wages to maintain the playing fields. Staff will be unable to maintain the edge or lip that develops on the infield/outfield border on a regular basis. Scott recommends that Staff be directed to purchase another infield rascal to maintain our ball diamonds at the professional standard they have become accustomed to.

We purchased this the rascal MVP for our field maintenance a few years back. The results were amazing. Due to the cancelation of the 2020 season our field got a bit out of shape. I used the attachments and the field was back to 100% in less than a week. Every team we play raves about our surface, the Rascal does miracles. My players thank you for providing the best surface, and I thank you for providing the best product on the market.

I recommend the Infield Rascal because I moved from the bottom up here and have used a variety of field equipment in my life. From a rake, to a pull behind homemade broom brush system, three wheelers with a drag, three different competitors machines and now the Rascal. There is no comparison in quality, efficiency or the time and money savings we have achieved with the Infield Rascal. Nothing has gone wrong after one year of constant use. The others machines we have used are contentious maintenance issues. You can have anyone call me or email for my opinion especially if they have done field work in their career they will understand what I am talking about. I do this for no other reason than you guys made the Infield Rascal right.

There is absolutely nothing like the Infield Rascal out on the market. I shopped around and most people spend $18,000 on a Toro Sand Pro. The Infield Rascal will run circles around the Sand Pro for 1/6th the price. I love how you can rip out the weeds in just one pass. This is the best decision we have spent our money on. I can’t say it enough how much I love this tool. We are a small D3 school and we have D1 schools asking if they can play on our field because of the weather. When we get a lot of rain the Infield Rascal airs it out completely. In just a few passes it will be ready to play on in the toughest weather. Our school used to use three different tools to prepare the field before a game. Now we don’t have to rush or worry about getting it done in time. We get asked if we had our field professionally grades every time we play a game on it. I am so happy with this purchase and would buy from ABI any time. Their staff is incredible and my salesman, Roger Walterhouse, was fantastic in helping me get what I wanted and in a short amount of time. I can guarantee you will love the Infield Rascal; it is the greatest tool out there.

Just a quick note letting you know how great your product is. I’m the lone groundskeeper at a 6 diamond complex and the Infield Rascal has been a great investment . It saves me man hours , energy and best of all produces great results in leveling, weeding, overall maintenance and appearance of our baseball facility. I wish we had the Infield Rascal years ago!!

Awesome! I love how easy it is to work on an art project with your team! The outcome is always amazing!

We could not be happier with your product. The machine does exactly what we needed it to do. As you know, we had a very wet spring here in western NY. We did have to cancel a number of games, but if the weather cooperated enough that we could get on our fields with the infield rascal, we had them ready for play. There were a number of days we had the only playable fields in the area and schools were moving games here. I have already sung your praises to others in my position and will continue to do so. Thanks!

The hardest thing for me when I was buying the Rascal was purchasing it over the phone, but now that I have it I couldn’t be happier with my tool. My salesmen Brad Ulick did a great job explaining how it worked and what it was built to do. The main reason I am so happy is because the tool does exactly what Brad said it would. I wasn’t finagled or tricked into anything and he made it very clear that it was my decision and wasn’t forcing anything on me. The Rascal is the best tool out on the market and I wouldn’t trade it for any other drag.

We finally got the best of our Rascal Rookie and moved up to the MVP and we couldn’t be happier! The Rookie was fantastic for us but the MVP is a whole other level of functionality. We maintain 5 baseball fields and 2 dirt driveways with this and it is the only tool we use now. Ours was delivered just after the COVID shutdown, so we had plenty of time to try it out and we LOVE this thing! Craig and all the people at ABI were just as solid, as well. Can’t recommend this unit and company enough.
