Anyone else's course suffering from worm casts? We have it quite bad at the moment on my course, as we have obeyed the rules in stopping the use of previous treatments.
Manager of the course believes other courses in the area are (allegedly) still using them.
On this web page are a couple of links to tell you all about it.

Good for the other courses if they are still using them. Managers and Greenkeepers should be free to act as they see fit, within the boundaries of their own property.

No not normally, on this one though I can appreciate the temptation.

Oh I agree. Even when it was explained to us, there were still loads of moaning by the members. Staff don't want to be faced with that continuously.

Thought I was on an angling page for a minute. I used to be a pretty effective casting a worm for trout, sea trout & salmon.
