 Attached is a link to a weekly USGA Green Section Newsletter.  Several good topics from ball mark repair to course etiquette.  If you choose, there is a link to sign up to receive the newsletter.

The article regarding Precision Turf Management gives good insight to the direction of Golf Course Management.  Here at WCC, we will be using moisture sensors placed in the profile of several greens, along with the use of portable moisture sensors to assist with the daily task of water management on our greens.  Not only does this emerging technology assist with better playing conditions, in our case there is clearly a monetary savings with more efficient use of irrigation water.

The article by Jim Moore on golf course etiquette is a must read for those new to the game, as well as the seasoned golfer needing a brush up on the importance of course etiquette.
