Abstract/Contents:"The position of a golf ball in the canopy of turf, or ball lie, can have a significant effect on a golf shot. As turf breeders develop improved cultivars for use on golf course fairways and tees, the National Turfgrass Evaluation Program oversees the testing of these improved cultivars in differing climatic regions throughout North America. The University of Arkansas was selected as a test site for the 2008 bentgrass fairway/tee trial which included 27 bentgrass cultivars (colonial or creeping bentgrass). Ball lie was measured on 24, 25, and 26 of October in 2010. Plots were maintained at a 0.5 inch height of cut and data were collected at zero, one, and two days after mowing. Average ball lie was affected by bentgrass cultivar on each day of evaluation. Ball lie was better directly after mowing than after one and two days of growth, although two days of growth had better ball lie than one day. Significance was noted when bentgrass cultivars were averaged over the three testing days with 007, A08-TDN2, and MVS-Ap-101 ranking in the top statistical group. Creeping bentgrass cultivars, on average, had 1.7% more ball exposed than colonial bentgrasses."
