Abstract/Contents: | Discusses potentially harmful effects of faster-surfaces on the golf industry, stating that "there are no prizes for cutting your greens at a height so absurdly low that nothing other than weeds will grow." Suggests that turfgrass "is not designed to be pummeled and thrashed by man and machine on a week-by-week basis and, unsurprisingly, it needs a break from time to time." |
