Dry, Trampled Putting Green
L ukey and I played on the new putting green a couple of days early last week. We had a great time and were looking forward to spending time "Pitching and Putting" more often. Unfortunately, the putting green took a bit of a nosedive so we haven't been using the putting green at all. Well... we haven't been using the putting green for golf. I've been busy working on trying to revive the new putting green. In order to choose the right remedy, I needed to figure out what went wrong. This was a bit of a problem because I really only had a bunch of guesses on what went wrong. Let's list them... 1. We used the putting green too soon before the new grass had time to mature and become hardier. 2. Maybe my new putting green had a disease. 3. Perhaps I didn't keep it moist enough once we started using it. 4. Or the opposite... perhaps I had some root rot and I had been watering it too much. 5. Maybe the pH wasn't right for this type of grass. 6
