Green’s Assessment by Billy Fuller - As a general statement, greens at the CCO are small on average and some are quite heavily contoured.  This was normal for grasses that were maintained at a speed of 9.0 to 9.5 on average, which is fairly typical for TifDwarf Bermudagrass greens.  As speeds increase many of the hole locations within some greens become very limited.  My definition of hole locations within a green is when no two locations are closer than fifteen feet.  We noted a number of greens today that had a maximum of three to four hole locations.  If an ultra dwarf bermudagrass such as Champion, TifGreen or Mini Verde were to be planted, it would be critical to soften the slopes and in some instances add square footage for adequate pin locations.  Regarding No-Till planting an ultra dwarf, in my opinion, your greens are not a candidate.  In order to be a candidate means your slope designs and pin locations must be proper for speeds of 10.5 or higher on a daily basis. Green’s Assessment by Josh Dunaway  - Due to the fact of having TifDwarf which is a very outdated form of Bermuda grass (began being installed in the 1950’s) green speeds above 10.5 are difficult to achieve without; 1) severely stressing the turf and 2) rigorous maintenance (i.e. double – cutting and rolling daily). It is also apparent that shade plays a big impact on several green complexes, as well. We measured and mapped our green's mix root-zone depth and they appear to be not uniform to United States Golf Association green building specifications. Our depths range from 10" to 24" which is unusually deep and inconsistent. The following website gives a complete description of the specifications of a USGA putting green.  http://www.usga.org/Content.aspx?id=26124
