Initially, they have to mow the greens higher until the overseed has really taken hold. Remember they mow the greens in the morning when they are still damp with dew. If they tried to mow at the normal height, they would pull the overseed out. Wait a week or two and they will be better.

Played Hemingway and Kilimanjaro today. Greens at normal speed. Kilimanjaro was rough only.
