Results from someone’s joyride across multiple turfs under light snow: darkening on higher HOC turf. Even less (no) impact on fairway height Poa annua.

Overall: no big whoop.

This is something I would see a lot in spring when dog walkers would walk through the frosty golf course. High mowed turf would have week long visible footprint damage. It would not appear on fairways and greens.

When joy rides go straight it ain’t bad. Now donuts on things hurt on old turf. Surprisingly, I have seen donuts on newly seeded stuff, and the seed pops quicker there. It was strange. So when I seed stuff o kind of drive over it in waves. It works. It’s is strange also.

Good seed to soil contact I would imagine
