Agent Orange is not good for golf courses.

  • Ugh! That guy might have to change his profession if he wants to get a job again…

  • Our greens were destroyed in 1998 by mis-labeled fertilizer. Forced long-range plans into short term ones. Irrigation installed, new greens and tee boxes (mistakenly bent instead of natural poa) and traps were rebuilt (without detailed blueprints, and with poor design).
    What a nightmare. Greenskeeper’s life was spared.

    Barely.
