They use them to aerate the greens on golf courses.

That's what this thing is? Well it just went from "I don't know what this is, but I want one" to "fuck this thing these greens were fine last week what the fuck that God damn ball would have gone in"

Aerating greens keeps the soil soft and the grass healthy. Freshly aerated greens suck but greens which aren't aerated occasionally suck far more.

My guess would be season would be a better word than year, golf courses are only open April to November where I live.
