| Abstract/Contents: | It's no fun playing on wet, soggy fairways, let alone trying to work on them. With an improved drainage system working it is possible to open the course, use golfcarts, avoid scalping and mechanical injury due to skid marks soon after a rainstorm. "In keeping the soil near field capacity with sprinklers, stringent provisions must be made to handle excess rainfall. In hilly country provision has to be made sooner or later to stop seepage. Slit-trench drains are used successfully to remove excess water from pocketed and relatively level fairway areas. Another area where intercepting lines can be used to good advantage is in front of pitched greens that seep to cause a wet, soggy approach." |
