Ball Mark Repair

A superintendents main focus is the greens on the course.  Most of the daily routines are directed towards keeping greens healthy and playable.  However, the golf course crew can only do so much before green repair falls into the golfers hands.  A dedication to ball mark repair by the membership is very helpful and appreciated by any maintenance staff. 

The Brook has just ordered new ball mark repair tools that we hope the members will all use.  The new tool has a different design than traditional models and should be less damaging to the turf.  The traditional tools required a twisting, jabbing motion that severs roots and shoots alike.  The new GreenFix repair tool involves only a light push around the edge of the ball mark and a soft pat-down with the putter.  With the use of the GreenFix tool we expect to see a shortened recovery time for ball marks. 

The GreenFix tools will be distributed this Saturday, June 25th during the Member-Member Tournament.  For a detailed, instructional video please check out the link below.  Enjoy and thanks.
