Syringing putting greens has been a hot topic lately! Here are some answers to common questions about this practice 👇

[USGA Green Section @USGAGrnSection]

As we've seen at Shinnecock Hills, weather has a big impact on course setup and maintenance decisions. That’s why USGA agronomists rely on data from the GS3 Ball and USGA Moisture Meter to monitor putting green performance & make informed adjustments ➡️https://t.co/ClxE2zF5n7

We're excited to announce the launch of the new USGA Moisture Meter! It provides precise & consistent data on soil moisture, salinity, and temperature - and it connects directly to the DEACON platform for easy data management. Check it out @GCSAAConference, click to learn more👇

Today’s Record is a special issue focused on data collection. We look at putting green OM levels, GS3 surface metrics, how to sample for organic matter, the value of data collection, and much more. Click to subscribe 👇

@PatJonesTweets Congratulations, Pat.

Working to relate measured golf ball bounce using high-speed video and motion tracking software to smoothness data returned by the USGA GS3 Ball. Recent research suggest that the GS3 "smoothness" data will be highly correlated to measured ball bounce.

Solving the industry labor dilemma requires assistance and awareness from outside the superintendent community. The @SSCF_Foundation is helping do just that by engaging clubs and golfers to help increase awareness and deliver support to future superintendents. @ToroGolf

[The Super Scratch Foundation, Inc. @SSCF_Foundation]

Sneak peak into how the Korn Ferry tour is dropping and rolling #USGAgs3 for tournament setup 😎 @USGAGrnSection @USGA

[Michael Whan @USGAMike]

All majors and olympics utilized GS3 as well. Is your course using the best available technology to assess and enhance green experience and consistency?

[Korn Ferry Tour @KornFerryTour]

Making sure the course is ready for competition ⛳️

The agronomy team uses a $1,000 ball to test the speed and firmness of the greens.

@brianjlaurent Let’s Go!!

How are we measuring putting green firmness @usopengolf? Drop tests with the GS3 Ball and data analysis with the DEACON app. To learn more ➡️https://t.co/1SrSbUPdyx
