| Abstract/Contents: | Provides an evaluation of a golf course in Derbyshire, England, focusing on the course's overall improvements over a two-year period. Summarizes the evaluation methods undertaken by Sports Turf Research Institute, including the use of a Stimpmeter and a Clegg Impact Hammer. States that "the essential aim is to combine optimal levels of speed, smoothness, and firmness to create a surface that receives a ball correctly and then allows it to roll out freely." Details the results of the evaluation, as well as a program set in place for improvements. Concludes that "nothing in this life is ever truly perfect." |
