Nothing spoils the fun on a golf course like wet weather. Conditions suffer, and it may not be possible to play at all, but the sun will shine again and things will be back to normal soon.

It's Hot Out There ☀️

Long stretches of dry weather can be challenging for golf courses, even with a good irrigation system. Here's why you'll see some brown areas of turf/thinning, and why the answer isn't simply to use more water. #MassGolf #USGA
