Abstract/Contents:Describes the year 2005, stating that "at most courses across the upper Midwest [United States], it was a quiet, peaceful season, with little, if any, heat stress to turf...On the other hand, providing consistent playing surfaces was very difficult...[for those who] happened to be unlucky enough to have experienced significant winterkill." Discusses the use of turf covers to prevent winter injury, but states that "covers are simply not the panacea for all the types of winter injury that can occur across the northern tier of states." Suggests that turf covers "under certain conditions...can be beneficial and an excellent investment, under other conditions...[can] have little, if any, impact on turf quality and survival."
