Product DescriptionThe only must-have guide to managing putting green speed
The Superintendent’s Guide to Controlling Putting Green Speed is a valuable tool for successfully caring for what a Golf Course Superintendents Association of America survey identified as the number one factor golfers consider about a golf course--green speed. In accessible, nontechnical language, this insightful reference addresses every factor affecting green performance, complete with guidance for analyzing and solving problems commonly found on a broad range of golf courses.
The Superintendent’s Guide to Controlling Putting Green Speed presents an authoritative compilation of applied research using the Stimpmeter to identify how factors including turfgrass species, root zone, environmental conditions, and cultural practices impact green speed. This full-service guide also provides decision-making advice by challenging the manager to consider the law of diminishing return and provide a proven technique for finding his or her golf course’s ideal green speed.
The Superintendent’s Guide to Controlling Putting Green Speed is a complete resource for golf course superintendents, architects, owners, green committee members, and students who want to successfully manage green speed.
