Abstract/Contents:Discusses putting greens, listing potential maintenance features, including "not all putting greens are created equal; some may be firmer than others"; "depending on maintenance practices, some greens will putt faster than others"; and "close, frequent mowings on fairways and tees will help the putting greens hold." Concludes that "players who have not played under firm conditions are in for a treat, once they learn to allow for the roll."
