How do I get stripes like ballparks do?

Big League Striping

Striping is done using a roller pulled behind the mower deck. The mower must be a rider, and the roller must support the full weight of the mower so that the pressure forces the grass down and away, in the direction the mower is traveling. Light reflects off of the grass differently depending on how the blade lies, creating the different shades.
