Let's talk about repairing ball marks on the putting green, and doing so properly. I see a lot of people do this improperly. Unfortunately, many of them are PGA Tour players, and they do it on television. They put their divot repair tool in the ground, pop up, and tap down. This is the wrong way to repair a ball mark. It damages or rips the roots and the grass does not heal in a short time, taking weeks to recover. We had an old topic on this, but it's old, and the videos and links in it are probably almost all outdated. So I wanted to revisit the topic anew. First, a video, an

Found an overgrown course not played in 5 years. Greens are visible still but essentially the same as overgrown fairway, just raised.

grips How do you keep rubber grips soft and tacky?
iacas posted a topic in Clubs, Grips, Shafts, Fitting
