Factors Affecting Grooming
There are a number of factors that can affect the performance of grooming.
These factors vary for different golf courses and from green to green. It is
important to inspect the turf frequently and vary the grooming practice with turf
needs.
IMPORTANT
Improper or overaggressive use of the grooming reel, such as too
deep or frequent grooming, may cause unnecessary stress on the
turf leading to severe turf damage. Use the groomer carefully. Read
and understand the installation instructions before operating or
testing groomer performance.
It is important to remember that factors affecting quality of cut also affect
grooming performance.
Variables that Affect the Use and Performance of Grooming Reels:
1. The growing season and weather conditions.
2. General turf conditions.
3. The frequency of grooming/cutting—number of cuttings per week and how
many passes per cutting.
4. The blade spacing on the grooming reel.
5. The height-of-cut.
6. The grooming depth.
7. The type of grass on the green.
8. The amount of time that a grooming reel has been in use on a particular
turf area.
9. The amount of traffic on the turf.
10. The overall turf management program (e.g., irrigation, fertilizing, weed
control, coring, over-seeding, disease control, sand dressing, and pest
control).
11. Stress periods for turf (e.g., high temperatures, high humidity, and unusually
high traffic).
