Abstract/Contents: | Architect Pete Dye discovered that back in the 1960's and 1970's green speed wasn't as exaggerated as it is today. Golfers persist in the mistaken belief that faster is better. Club members argue that their greens were faster back in the '50s and '60s. The result has been higher expenses for maintenance of weaker turf that is more susceptible to disease. This has also contributed to an idiotic competition among clubs for the fastest greens. |
