| Abstract/Contents: | Describes maintenance practices of several superintendents to combat winterkill. States that "unusual temperature swings have created a vast area of disease conditions throughout western North America." Details damage caused to turf, stating that "golf course turf throughout western Canada and the northern third of Minnesota was no match for 130-plus consecutive days of ice cover that left a trail of dead bent and Poa." Mentions that "coming back from the dead requires skill, luck and patience on the part of the superintendent...Still, factors beyond human control can overcome even the best management efforts." |
