      In case you have ever wondered what

        a putting green looks like below the


     surface, please see the diagram. At the

           subgrade, there is drainage pipe

           spaced no more than 15 ft. apart


       throughout the green, covered with a


       4 in. layer of gravel, then topped with

     12 inches of sand-based rootzone mix.

      Much research has been performed to


        determine these USGA guidelines to                                           A big thank you to Seth
