| Abstract/Contents: | Discusses the golf course and the environment, highlighting Golf Digest's standards for rating golf courses. Explains that "the...definition reads: 'How firm and rolling were the fairways, and how firm yet receptive, were the greens on the day [of play]...By emphasizing 'firm and fast'...the magazine...provides some justification for cutting down on water and chemical usage." Mentions the potential environmental benefits of a dormant bermudagrass playing surface, stressing that "the costumer is another concern...it will take some time for the 'Brown is Beautiful' movement to catch on with the golfing public." |
