WEAR / TRAFFIC TOLERANCE
On golf courses, wear injuries usually
result from physical abrasions and torn
plant tissue caused by maintenance vehicles,
golf carts, and incoming balls. On athletics
fields, compaction, as well as cleat and
spike injuries are the most common problems.
A 1998 wear simulation study involving
seven paspalums and three bermudas revealed
that, in general, the fine-textured paspalums
had less or similar injury from wear than
bermudas of similar texture.
