Please refer to the <b>Temporary Local Rules<\/b> for the free relief options if your ball touches these areas.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div><b>The question has been asked:<\/b> <i>why not simply poison this weed?<\/i> Spray or spot poisoning with a specific herbicide of the rough, fairways and path edges is very effective and that program has begun, led by <b>Super Justin Wells<\/b>. You will notice a gradual browning of the Crows Foot in the coming days before bare patches will remain in these larger areas.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>However the affected ugly green aprons need a more reactive personal approach. Dabbing with Glyphosate poison would work but take forever\u00a0to see a good finish. By digging the weed and repairing with sand the timeframe\u00a0of removal, repair and recovery is much quicker and obviously\u00a0more desirable. The Crows Foot in the greens will be reduced by the oversowing and a permanent fix addressed\u00a0in the spring.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>There are still some remaining Crows Foot close to the greens which the volunteers will get to soon.
