Abstract/Contents:States that "the superintendent must have an acute awareness of the effects wear has on his golf course and he must develop and dedicate programs to control this adversary." Suggests that "the two major areas available to the superintendent to combat wear damage are 1) cultural programming and 2) physical construction or reconstruction." States that "[superintendents] have found the introduction of hardier varieties of turfgrasses to greens, tees, fairways and roughs can be accomplished by propagating durable, wear-tolerant species to make the turfgrass stand a healthier blend to fight off the stress of wear." Suggests that "physical construction or reconstruction can be used to increase the square footage of golf course features as the concentration of traffic is diverted to other areas."
