Abstract/Contents: | Discusses that the trend for brown turf might threaten long-term revenues, playability, and the environment of golf courses. Suggests the possibility that green grass serves to benefit the environment of the golf course. Concludes with the opinion that balance is the key, stating that: "[going brown] is a poor message that could lead to unattractive consequences for the golf course." |
