| Question: | "We have an excellent sod on our fairways consisting of clover and bluegrass, with a very heavy stand of mixed fall grasses, which latter predominate at this season. The fairways are getting ragged, but we are afraid to clip them so late (October). Is it customary to clip the fairways of golf courses at this time of the year and later in the fall?" |

| Answer/Response: | "As for mowing fairways at this time of the year (October), we would advise you to do so. Fairways should be kept at the proper height throughout the season. That means that they should be mowed as late in the year as necessary to keep them at good fairway height. There is no danger from winterkilling of turf that is well drained, and height of cutting apparently does not enter in to any appreciable extent." |
