| Quotable quotes | "Because of a fairly popular misconception in this country, it is necessary to emphasize at this point that the basic principles involved in producing the desirable bowling surface are considerably different from those to produce the best golf greens. .... . Golf green construction and maintenance is quite different from bowling green construction and maintenance and, while certain analogies can be made, the final aims must not be confused." p. 2 |
