Abstract/Contents: | Discusses advancements in golf course management technology. States that "golfers continue to demand faster, firmer, smoother greens...and...golf course managers continue to meet and exceede these expectations. With the help of educators, researchers, breeders, manufacturers and industry partners, [golf course managers] have discovered ways to mow grass shorter, feed it less, reduce water requirements, and at the same time, make it more resistant to pests and diseases." Suggests that "the key to successful implementation of turfgrass advancements and new technology lies with the superintendent." Concludes that "golf course management is on the cutting edge of modern technology, but it's still about maintaining life in a living, breathing environment." |
