CASE STUDIES
The Club at Chatham Hills
A comprehensive turf management approach helped The Club at Chatham Hills improve course conditions and support consistent playing quality.
THE CHALLENGE
Maintaining High-Quality Turf Across Premium Playing Surfaces
The Club at Chatham Hills in Westfield, Indiana, requires consistent turf performance across highly visible playing surfaces. Golf course teams must balance turf quality, playability, growth regulation, weed and disease pressure, labor efficiency, and expectations from members and guests.
THE APPROACH
Integrating Growth Regulation and Pre-Emergent Weed Control
To support consistently high-quality bentgrass playing surfaces, The Club at Chatham Hills incorporated a season-long turf management program built around Legacy® plant growth regulator and StriCore herbicide. Legacy was used to regulate turf growth, improve density, and enhance playing surface consistency, while StriCore provided pre-emergent control of troublesome weeds and introduced a novel active ingredient to strengthen resistance management strategies.
Working together, the products helped the maintenance team promote healthier, more uniform turf while reducing weed pressure across managed acres. The integrated approach allowed the team to focus on delivering premium playing conditions without sacrificing turf quality, consistency, or long-term sustainability.
