Abstract/Contents: | Discusses the use of thick cut, big roll bermudagrass sod to re-grass the practice tee in the winter at Bonita Bay Club, Bonita Springs, FL. Explains that "with sodding, a more mature turf condition results so that the golfers do not feel as if they are constantly hitting out of sand and a thin ryegrass turf." States that "if maintaining a turf cover on the practice tee has been a major battle, you might want to consider rolling out the carpet." |
