| Abstract/Contents: | Discusses the use of pine straw beds on golf courses as a result of budget cuts, suggesting that it may be less beneficial. Provides research on the cost of pine straw in comparison to turf roughs and briefly details the maintenance pine straw requires. Concludes that pine straw "requires a substancially higher financial commitment than the costs associated with maintaining our rough." |
