Using less-disruptive aeration methods has the obvious benefit of minimizing the impact on playing conditions. It’s also a great way to reduce risk given increasingly unpredictable weather. The changes we are seeing in seasonal weather patterns is a big reason for the increased interest in adjusting tine size, frequency or type of aeration to lower-impact options. Superintendents and golfers do not like when aeration holes recover slower than anticipated. Cooler-than-normal spring weather that lasts later into early summer can delay recovery until soil temperatures increase to the point where grass is actively growing. By the same token, hotter-than-normal summer weather that lasts later into the fall can narrow the window for aeration and recovery later in the year.
