USGA Summary Points:"This project will provide data comparing the hydraulic performance of Airfield Systems greens using various combinations of rootzone mixtures and geotextiles with the performance of standard USGA designed greens using various rootzone mixtures and gravels." "The project will asses the degree of lateral movement of water in sloping greens constructed with the Airfield Systems design compared to the same with the USGA design." "Data will be collected showing the effectiveness of subsurface structures designed to minimize down-slope movement of water and for choosing appropriate rootzone mixtures for greens constructed with geotextiles compared to establishment criteria for gravel-based greens."
