Inside the current issue
May/June 2010 Bunker costs We’ve come a long way since the original Scottish golf course bunkers, which were formed by sheep burrowing to escape the cold weather. Today it’s an irony of golf courses that while bunkers cause endless frustration to golfers, well-placed bunkers are part of what gives a great golf course its unique character.
Non-chemical water treatment solutions Quality of water is an issue that affects everyone growing turf for any purpose. The presence of chemical and ionic imbalances in water used for irrigation can lead to reduced turf health, as well as mechanical problems in irrigation equipment caused by scale and other effects. For those who must look after static ponds, water quality will affect algae and plant growth.
