The simple evaluation method establishment of golf green turf quality

The green is the most carefully managed lawn in the golf course, and it influences the playability and operation of the golf course. A simple and practical turf quality evaluation method can help to select scientific golf course maintenance strategy and improve the quality of the green. In order to provide targeted and improved suggestions about maintenance, a reasonable and simple turf quality evaluation method of the green was established by combining evaluation and scoring of 6 index factors (speed, hardness, mowing height, smoothness, ratio of disease area and appearance quality) based on the existing turf quality evaluation theory and standards. The score of greens was 67 in June which had low score of mainly managing and increased to 86 in October which indicated that the selection of maintenance based on this evaluation method was feasible and effective.
