GREEN area is a crucial part in playing golf. In this area, the golfer will make the most crucial hit to put the ball into a hole or make a putter hit to end play golf.
Inevitably, the grass in the green area must be maintained to make it flat by following the contours of the land. This is to make the golf ball rolls smoothly on the grass after being hit, following the contours of the land in the green area.
LotusLakes Golf Club also spoil golfers by presenting a well-maintained green area. A special touch for the green area is carried out by the field care team under the control of Ir. Haryono.
“We do not care for the green area carelessly, because the green area determines the success of playing golf. The grass must be completely smooth and flat, so that when golfers make a putter hit they don’t miss from estimation, “said Haryono.
Haryono explained, the condition in the green area cannot be predicted. The conditions will be different every day. It can be damaged by disease, fungus, or even damaged due to excavated by wild dogs. Therefore, the green area has to be maintained every day, starting from cutting, fertilizing according to the dosage to restore the contour of the soil under the grass if it is damaged quite badly.
“The green area is like a second wife to us as a field maintenance team. It needs separate handling, it needs to be touched, because the grass can’t talk. So after maintenance, we always do trials to make sure golfers not disappointed,” said Haryono.
Haryono can imagine how a golfer who has struggled and carefully reads the green area so he can hit the ball on the right track with the precise strength so the ball can end on the hole or stop near the hole, but after making a putter hit, the ball goes out of estimation due to not-optimum condition of the grass and the contour of the land in the green area.
“We don’t want golfers playing at LotusLakes field experience such thing. We will maintain the quality of the green area at its best,”he said giving a guarantee.
