Golf Basics: Understanding Greens
Playing golf involves more than just mastering driving and putting. Since golf is an outdoor sport played on living landscapes, Mother Nature plays a significant role in the game.
The variety of grasses you'll encounter can significantly impact your game. From plush putting greens to sparse weed patches, the grass's texture, length, and density can alter your putt.
A dedicated golfer is prepared for any condition?"not just sunny, breezeless days. It’s common to see golfers with umbrellas braving the rain, which can also change how the ball moves.
Among the challenges to consider is the "lumpy donut," a man-made condition recognized by few but not a major threat.
In the U.S., you'll typically encounter two types of grass:
- Bent Grass: Found in northern regions, it has soft, fine blades that create a carpet-like texture. It thrives in cool weather but struggles with prolonged heat or humidity.
- Bermuda Grass: Common in southern climates, this robust grass handles warmth and humidity well. With long, broad, and sparser blades, it resembles a wild shag rug, often causing the ball to rise and fall unevenly. The grass's grain, or growth direction, also affects play.
These grasses create distinctly different playing surfaces. Bent grass offers a smoother roll, with breaks determined by land slope. Bermuda, however, can influence the shot due to its uneven growth patterns.
To adjust to different types of grass, use the practice green to understand how your shots will react.
