Bluemuda increasing rounds

Planning Unit: Plant and Soil Sciences

Major Program: Commercial Horticulture - Landscape Ecosystems

Outcome: Long-Term Outcome

Bluemuda is a relatively new concept that I have been working closely with for a number of years. Several golf courses and athletic fields in KY have implemented this system and the success seen in the field in overwhelming positive. Danville Country Club and Battlefield Country Club in Richmond were early adopters of the concept who are seeing increased rounds due to improved playing conditions. One of the benefits of bluemuda is improved aesthetics over bermudagrass alone, which has been attracting golfers to these locations, that otherwise would've played at different courses.
