| Abstract/Contents: | Discusses how Idaho turf professionals deal with the unpredictable weather of the state. Describes how Keith Pugmire, superintendent of Pinecrest Golf Course in Idaho Falls, ID, controls snow mold by putting down three or four fungicide applications for preventative control in the fall on all the greens and one-third of the fairways. Describes the various challenges Pugmire faces which include: worms living in the silt-loam soil under his course and managing 65-year old turf which is more susceptible to disease and winterkill. Concludes that "Pugmire has met their [golfers'increased] demands by investing in new equipment and increasing mowing frequency." |
