Abstract/Contents: | Discusses bowling green construction, focusing on green design; site choice; construction basics; rootzone addition and leveling; and seeding and development. Explains that "following the survey locating the green on the site, the first operation is to make a shallow excavation of about 30 cm [centimeters] deep...If low places exist, they must be filled with fully compacted sand and then the entire area is compacted with a vibratory roller." |
