With damp, dreary conditions last Thursday, we chose to move the practice tee hitting from grass to the mats for the day. If some question whether this was necessary or not--and one person clearly did--a quick look at this picture may explain why we made this call:
We had aerified and overseeded the tees on Monday, and as you can see, whoever opted not to stay on the mats, caused as much damage from their feet as they did with their club.
While we may not always get things right, there is generally a sound basis for the decisions the Pro Shop and Grounds staff make when it comes to protecting the golf course.
