Abstract/Contents: | Suggests that "the universal method of Green Truing...whether by sand or compost, is to have the material broadcasted with a shovel, then as evenly distributed as possible with the back of a rake." Notes that "it requires considerable experience to broadcast sand or compost upon the greens accurately enough to secure an even distribution. It also requires considerable experience to true a green with a rake." Offers suggestions for truing a green, stating that "after numerous experiments in green truing, the most practical method, and one which does not require skilled labor, is by the use of a fair sized Cocoa Door Mat." |
