Ouch!

 Two weeks ago, we put a whole lot of holes in the greens--somewhere around 250,000 per green, with just the hollow tines on Monday.  So at this time, some may question the need to repair ballmarks.  Well, the picture below pretty much speaks for itself, and answers that question:


If you think of the greens like a person in recovery following surgery, the last thing they need is another wound.  The surfaces are receiving a little water daily until the holes close.  With softer conditions, we see some nasty ballmarks.  So the argument can be made that now is actually the most important time to repair them.  As always, when you get to the green, please walk to your ballmark first, then to your ball.
