Abstract/Contents: | Discusses the potential importance of aesthetics and playability for golf courses during times on economic uncertainty, suggesting that "greenkeepers are more than aware that memberships can be lost, or saved, depending on their appearance, trueness, ball speed, and resistance." Profiles velvet bentgrass (Agrostis canina), focusing on its selection for use on golf courses. Mentions that "groundkeepers have found a way to seed their greens [with velvet bentgrass] and manage them with minimal maintenance, feeding, and watering programmes [programs]." Provides recommendations for cultivating golf greens, and lists the benefits of choosing velvet bentgrass. Concludes that "velvet bents seem to offer a real all around solution to an outdated meadow grass green." |
