DIVOT REPAIR INFORMATION
REMEMBER, THE CONDITION OF A GOLF COURSE ISN’T SOLELY DEPENDENT ON THE SUPERINTENDENT AND HIS STAFF. IT’S THE PLAYER’S RESPONSIBILITY TO LEAVE THE GOLF COURSE IN BETTER SHAPE AFTER PLAYING BY FIXING DIVOTS, REPAIRING BALL MARKS AND LIMITING PRACTICE SWINGS FROM THE TEEING GROUND. IDLE HOUR IS A BEAUTIFUL GOLF COURSE. LET’S ALL TAKE PRIDE AND DO OUR PART TO MAKE IT BETTER.
FOR THOSE ACTIVE ON SOCIAL MEDIA, THE USGA GREEN SECTION’S TWITTER IS @USGAGRNSECTION. THEY POST VERY REGULARLY ABOUT GOLF COURSE CARE. GIVE IT A FOLLOW.
