Researchers @OregonState looked at the impact of different kinds of traffic on turf during frost and freezing conditions. Some of the findings may surprise you!

Courses in the Northwest saw increased damage from summer patch this year. Prevention should be a priority going forward – especially if changing weather patterns continue favoring disease development.

Hey Turf Crew!
We need to switch out our Water Pump in Bob our campervan. Any chance there’s a golf course around Phoenix that wouldn’t mind letting us use the shop for a couple hours? We could be there Friday morning!
Please retweet or tag somebody you know in the area. Thank you!
Coffee and donuts on me!

Manny is a wonderful member of the Superintendent Community in Western Washington. Last Wednesday he suffered a stroke and is in need of our help if you are able.
