    Its a little late to ask this now being that I have already placed an order but:
    I would like to know if anyone has experience with R&R's reel height guage and/or groomer guages. Good quality? I may be answering this question myself real soon.

    Dru,

    for the most part all those gauges work ok. however they do have there flaws.

    IGCEMA recently came out with a much more accurate gauge for a real precise reading.
    here is the link check it out

    I have one of the R&R gages but only use it for setting up fairway mowers. The gage bar is made of aluminum and flexes quite a bit. Greens mowers require all the scrutiny one can give and a bar that does not flex is required.

    I got to linger around the IGCEMA booth at the show and play with the gauge. The workmanship is spot on. No more excuses for heights being consistently inconsistent.

    Nice, I wish I had known you had the item at your booth, although I might have proved your statement that "anyone can adjust height of cut to with-in .01" " wrong, or if I did master it, then you would be correct and should be able to sell tons of them.

    Quickly checking out your site and looking at the membership, I didn't see a cost for membership, there was a register page, can you tell me the cost of membership?

    Thanks!

    Gauge works great. Can't believe after all these years of setting height of cut with bars that are all different we finally decided to do something about it.
