RSVP now in the Golf Shop! Best Golf Course 5 Years in a Row! 3700 W. Drive, Kennewick, WA Phone Frost Challenges In the Fall and especially in the Spring we deal with frost challenges. When frost is present, we will delay play until the frost has melted. This is done to prevent damage that affects the quality of the playing surface and could potentially be very expensive and time consuming to repair. Frost is essentially frozen dew that has crystallized on the grass, making it hard and brittle. A grass blade is actually 90 percent water; therefore, it also freezes. Because of the short mowing height (sometimes as low as 1/8 inch) and fragile nature of the turf, putting greens are most affected by frost. Walking on frost covered greens causes the plant to break and cell walls to rupture, thereby losing its ability to function normally. When the membrane is broken, much like an egg, it cannot be put back together. Generally, damage isn t seen for hours later as the plant leaves turn brown and die. The result is a thinning of the putting surface and a weakening of the plant. The greens in turn become more susceptible to disease and weeds. While it may not appear to be much of an issue if a foursome begins play early on frost covered greens, consider the number of footprints that may occur on any given hole by one person is approximately 60. Multiply that by 18 holes with an average of 200 rounds per day and the result is 216,000 footprints on greens in a day or 6,480,000 in a month. P 6 March 2018
