We have been battling above average spike marks and foot traffic around the hole positions for the last 7-10 days. Our greens are mostly bentgrass of multiple cultivars. Course conditions have been saturated for the last 4-6 weeks, (over 14 inches) of rain however we have dried down are running our typical 13-18%VWC via TDR moisture meter. N inputs to date are 1.65 lb N/1000, topdressing bi-weekly with 1 large propass load per 15,000 sq ft. HOC is 0.110 inches. Not verticutting but brushing 1-2 times per week. Greens are regulated with 4ml Primo weekly. Location is Alberta, Canada.
I'm wondering if my cultural programs are contributing to the problem. Any thoughts would be welcomed.
I have had trouble uploading my pics this evening.
Thank you, Tyler.
