Abstract/Contents: | "Divots created by a golf stroke are a regular occurrence on golf course fairways and tees. Divot recovery is an important factor that should be considered when selecting a species or cultivar for use on golf course tees or fairways. There are few reports comparing divot recovery of bermudagrass and zoysiagrass cultivars. Therefore, the objectives of this experiment were to quantify the divot recovery for various bermudagrass and zoysiagrass cultivars in a field experiment. Divot recovery was evaluated on three collection dates in 2009 on five cultivars of bermudagrass and seven cultivars of zoysiagrass. Princess 77 and Riviera bermudagrass were typically the cultivars with the fastest time to 50% recovery, whereas Meyer and Zenith zoysiagrass were typically the slowest. Additionally, Tifway bermudagrass had similar divot recovery to El Toro zoysiagrass. These results demonstrate that differences and similarities exist among bermudagrass and zoysiagrass cultivars for divot recovery and will allow golf course superintendents to better select cultivars and species that will improve playing conditions while decreasing inputs." |
