| Abstract/Contents: | "Lawn Bowling Greens and Croquet Courts are unique when it comes to designing an efficient irrigations system. The restraint of not having fixed irrigation heads on the actual playing surfaces makes it difficult to obtain good water distribution and scheduling efficiency. Club members want hard, level playing surfaces, short green grass and no fixed irrigation heads on the playing surface. Water audits can be utilized to explain to club members the problems with maintaining healthy turf under these conditions and the need for extensive maintenance practices by the turf professionals. Turf professionals assigned to these facilities can use the water auditing tools to offset criticism thrown their way by club members, officials and their immediate supervisors regarding the turf conditions at these facilities. Growing healthy turf under these conditions is difficult even when using the water auditing tools to demonstrate existing problems." |
