    Hello All,

    Looking for a quick formula for figuring how much Sod we will need for sodding green surrounds....3 strips of sod at a 2 foot width.....We would like to come in with Bluegrass sod where the collar meets the rough and we have plenty of Bentgrass contamination......I Would appreciate suggestions or feedback from anyone who has done this...

    Lastly, before I cost this out I need a rough idea on square footage of Sod needed.......Without me running around to every green with my measuring wheel is there a simple formula using the square footage of greens to get this figure?....

    Thank you in advance for any help you can give me,

    Click on the map and it gives accurate measurements. I'll send you a pdf of a green I did at YCC.
