Just look at the conditions of the greens south of 466, you can not spray a weed killer on the green and expect to grow grass. Time to hire a company that knows what they’re doing.

Painting the greens green doesn't grow grass…
You could be on to something. The holes on the greens leave a lot to be desired as many are not “set” correctly.
