Water Savings with Penn Bents

Does your putting green have a drinking problem?

In the age of going green, is there any better way than saving water? Clubs around the world are faced with a shortage of water, using effluent water or buying it just to keep green. Water management is the key to savings and Tee-2-Green bents need less water to survive than older bents and poa annua greens.

An Oregon State University study shows that poa annua needs more water than any other species, and up to twice as much water as bentgrass to survive. Of course, letting poa annua go thirsty leads to other problems. Intervene and break the water habit by interseeding or renovating your poa annua-stricken greens with the Penn bents.

Penn bents are the water-saving solution that conserves time and money. See the study for yourself at: www.tee-2-green.com/research_studies

A special invitation from Tee-2-Green…
I would like to take this time to invite everyone to stop by the Tee-2-Green Booth #442 adjacent to John Deere. Over the past several years, we have been hosting a game in our booth called Seeds of Fortune which has become a great success. While playing the game, you have a chance to win a Tee-2-Green pocket portfolio, Tee-2-Green buck knife, or a chance to win our grand prize, a painting to hang in your office or in your home from the artistry of golf series entitled Erin Hills Hole #4.

While at the booth, you have a chance to meet the president of Tee-2-Green, Bill Rose; bentgrass growers Terry Plagmann and Don Estergard; Tee-2-Green staff,Marketing Manager Lee Habrich; and Agronomist & GolfCourse Consultant Lew Sharp. We look forward to meeting with you, answering questions, and sharing ideas.

The Game…
More about the Seeds of Fortune game. While playing, you will be asked basic turf questions, as well as questions pertaining to the origins of Penn bentgrass and details of the 16 Penn bentgrass varieties, including recent trait-specific advancements. The game features six levels of questions, each with varying degrees of difficulty, and a randomly asked “Daily Duich,” named in honor of Dr. Joe Duich. A word of warning … this game is contagious, and you will have fun.


See you at the show...
