Abstract/Contents:Stresses the importance of investing enough time in choosing the grass seed for a golf course. Discusses choosing high quality cultivars, suggesting to "do the research that will identify the best variety for your course. Consider soil conditions, climate, the way the course plays and how much traffic it gets." Suggests looking at seed purity, finding out germination rates, comparing prices and planting the right amount of seed. Also states that $20,000 is "a typical annual budget for seed for an established course."
