Every course is going to assign different moisture levels, given the soil, grass types and expectations. At Metamora we try and keep a controlled average of 25% through our irrigation system, which gives you a firm and fast putting surface!

Tools of our trade
As mentioned in an earlier post, Superintendent's use a lot of different tools while doing their jobs. The tool pictured here is a moisture meter. This tool allows us to check moisture levels at different areas of greens, tees and fairways. We use this mostly on greens. The way this tool works is it measures the volumetric water content of the given area. It is inserted into the ground and metal tines (not pictured) will transmit the moisture reading to the display screen.
