Question: | "Our club uses temporary tees during the winter months. Surrounding clubs continue to use their regular tees for winter play. Is there a general recommendation for closing tees during the winter?" |
Source of Question: | Maryland |
Answer/Response: | "No. If your regular tees are used, they will likely show signs of damage through the winter and into spring. Temporary tees help to limit damage to regular tees during a time of the year when the grass is not recovering. However, many golfers grumble about temporary winter tees. If the regular tees are to be used when the grass is not growing, there needs to be an understanding that areas of the tees will still show signs of damage during the early part of the golfing season until the grass begins to grow enough to provide recovery or until these areas are sodded if damage is severe." |
