Abstract/Contents: | "Ball lie describes how a golf ball comes to rest in the turf canopy following a stroke. Ball lie is often considered uniform and adequate on the tee box or if it comes to rest in the fairway, but in the intermediate or deep rough, ball lie is variable. This project was conducted to investigate how different management techniques affect how a ball is positioned within the canopy of the turf. Different mowing heights, fertilizer rates, and trinexapac-ethyl (tradename Primo) rates were applied to Tifsport bermudagrass and they were evaluated to see how they affected ball lie. On all rating dates, ball lie improved as mowing height decreased. There was an interaction between mowing heights and Primo, with Primo having a positive effect on ball lie at higher mowing heights, but no effect at lower mowing heights. Nitrogen fertilization did not affect ball lie of Tifsport bermudagrass." |
