How to fix a divot and other golf etiquette

8.02.2010 | Blog, Sports

It’s no secret I love golf. I try to play at least once every few weeks. Over the past month I have played a lot of golf (golf trip photos coming soon). However, it pains me to see that many players don’t fix their divots when playing. Whether it be on the green or on the fairway, many amateur players simply don’t understand how important it is for them to fix this. A simple 30sec fix at time of divot saves weeks of grass rejuvenation. Another thing I have noticed, is that not all players know the proper way to fix a divot or ball mark. Most of them do it incorrectly and do more damage to the green than they know. I have added some videos here for you to get aquainted with the proper procedure and etiquette on the golf course. Enjoy!
