Pat,
Have you played on the new greens at Torrey South?
The sitauation there is not a grow in problem, but stems from poor quality sod that had a high thatch content. The City then refused to take the advice of the USGA turf consultant and perform monthly aeration to help break it up and allow the roots (which after 3 years have not gone down more than 1 inch) to penetrate enough to make the grass healthy. The interim managers first action was to order them punched, one week before the prestigious Junior World Tournament last Sept.
Steve,
They do use reclaimed water to irrigate the fairways, however only use potable water on the greens. Don as usual is spot on, our water quality here in San Diego is less than ideal.
