Also discusses species selection and seed mixtures for golf greens, approaches and tees. Suggests using wire netting to block windblown sand from contaminating the courses. Emphasizes the importance of a good water supply, stating that "I would propose laying a 3-inch pipe right through every seaside course, with a hydrant and sprinkler at every green." |
