Question: | "We have used our greens in the fall after the grass has become dormant and until the freezing and thawing made them slippery, without apparent injury. Is there any objection to continuing this practice through the winter at periods when the ground is not covered with snow or ice?" |
Source of Question: | Wisconsin |
Answer/Response: | "Most golf clubs now use their greens throughout the winter except at times when the ground is freezing and thawing at which time temporary greens should be made on the fairways. Putting greens should never be used when subject to intermittent freezing and thawing, nor when in a soggy condition in the winter." |
