Actually, no, we probably don't have totally different views about golf course conditions. What I have tried to do is provide some insight into what it takes to maintain turfgrass in this environment. And perhaps provide a balancing viewpoint because I am aware of the difficulty in growing turf when it is used daily under conditions that work against it thriving. And provide an example of what can be accomplished by working with maintenance and administration as we do with the executive courses, which are showing improvement. But it appears people would rather rant and rave and point fingers. Fine. Enjoy.
