Verticutting
Verticutting

Vertical mowing, or verticutting, is an extremely

beneficial and necessary practice for golf course

putting greens. This practice helps eliminate

unwanted thatch buildup, removes aggressive

stolons that hinder ball roll, and promote upright

growth of the turf plant. A light verticut, or

grooming, is performed weekly to bi-weekly during

the growing season to maintain optimum ball roll.

A big thank you to Seth Smith and his Grounds Crew for making our

greens look great!
