What would help the conditions of the fairways all year long would be if all golfers would use the 90 degree rule all the time, not just when instructed to. Use the cart path up to a spot around where your or your partners ball lies and then exit the path and return to the path after hitting. This helps the fairways and the rough both have less traffic. Many times you will see golfers leave the T box and drive right down the middle of the fairway to where their ball is positioned. Heavy golf cart traffic is a killer to the fairway and rough grass regardless of how much rain we receive

Do not follow where the path may lead.
Go instead where there is no path and leave a trail.
