Abstract/Contents:Discusses renovations made to The River Course at Kiawah Island Club in South Carolina. States that "a five-month renovation scheduled for completion in October [2006] includes regrassing the fairways...with Emerald Dwarf Bermudagrss. According to the grower, it's the first time Emerald has been used on fairways." Explains that "behind the conversion were mutating stands of Tifway 419 Bermuda and TifDwarf that resulted in off-color and blotch spots on the fairways and surrounds." Mentions that "the renovation also includes regrassing the greens with champion Bermuda."
