Abstract/Contents: | Discusses factors that may have an impact on the playability of a golf course, focusing on green speed, course setup, rough areas, maintenance, and playability. Addresses the progression that green speed usage has undergone throughout the years, and lists different aspects that impact it. Describes the potential causes that influence the trueness of the green. States that "two major factors influencing course setup are the hole location on each green and the placement of the tee markers on each tee." Notes different choices to make when dealing with the rough, including grass types, density, height of cut, and frequency of mowing. Highlights some of the main points that superintendents deal with when maintaining their course. |
