Forgoing overseeding has benefited courses, players Chicago Tribune
Whether they've realized it or not, golfers playing on South Carolina's Grand Strand courses at Myrtle Beach have been putting on different type of grasses over the spring months.
Golf course operators and superintendents increasingly have been forgoing the process of overseeding Bermudagrass with winter grasses.
Where overseeding greens with poa trivialis and tees, fairways and even rough with ryegrass was expected and commonplace through the mid-2000s to keep courses a lush green year-round, wall-to-wall overseeding now is becoming a less common practice. "I think you'll see a lot more people, especially with the ultradwarfs, doing it because it's so much easier to keep green speeds and conditions up," said Kevin Thompkins, Class A GCSAA member, True Blue superintendent and president of the Palmetto Golf Course Superintendents Association.More
