Winter injury to ultradwarf bermudagrass putting greens can stem from two primary factors: desiccation of plant tissue and exposure to low temperatures. Unlike the effects of low temperatures, tissue desiccation [...]

As ultradwarf bermudagrass (Cynodon dactylon x C. transvaalensis) putting greens move further north in the Transition Zone, there is an increased risk of sustaining low-temperature winter injury. The periodic covering [...]

It has been estimated that more than 25 percent of all turfgrasses are exposed to some level of shade, with shade being produced by a variety of sources, including trees, [...]

Firmness is an important attribute of championship greens, affecting both playability and durability of the putting surface. However, firmness can be interpreted and managed in various ways. Underlying factors often [...]

Bermudagrass (Cynodon dactylon) is the choice for golf course fairways and tees in the South and in the Transition Zone because it tolerates close mowing (less than 3/4 inch) and [...]

Warm-season turfgrasses in the Transition Zone can go dormant for up to six months of the year. Early-spring bulbs add color to dormant lawns, yet their persistence in the turfgrass [...]

As ultradwarf bermudagrass (Cynodon dactylon x C. transvaalensis) use moves farther north, there is increased risk of winter injury from low temperatures and desiccation. The use of protective covers during [...]

The article focuses on a study for evaluating impact of golf ball lie on golf shot performance features conducted at the University of Arkansas Research and Extension Center with a low-handicap (LH) golfer and a high-handicap (HH) golfer having different skill levels. Topics discussed include hitting golf ball from creeping bentgrass at different mowing heights, impacting backspin generation and confirming conventional thinking on playing.

The article reports on the study of dormant sprigging of zoysiagrass and bermudagrass which was done at the University of Arkansas Agricultural Research and Extension Center in Fayetteville which applied the plantings on dormant, spring and summer season
