Abstract/Contents:Discusses techniques and tools for increasing putting speed. Focuses on the decreasing of mowing height in order to increase putting speed but includes the drawbacks of doing so, which include decrease in the turf's general health and the reduction of root depth. Highlights a new technique of nitrogen fertilization in replacement of decreasing mowing height, which instead increases mowing height. Adds that with the increasing of mowing height root growth, turf health, and increasing of sand incorporation within the turf canopy are all positive attributes to this new technique.
