A golf game, in the simplest terms, is an outdoor sport played on the grass ground to drop small balls from the starting point to the target hole through sticks. Although the beginning of golf sport dates back to long ago, there are different opinions about when and where it started. According to one view, the game of chuiwan, played by hitting the ball with a stick and stick during the Ming Dynasty in China between 1368-1644, is considered to be the first beginning of golf. The game is thought to have spread to Europe in the Middle Ages by traders. Another view is that the game of golf was played during the reign of Caesar during the Romans. In this period, a golf-like game called paganica, which was played by hitting feather-filled balls with branches, was played. It is known that similar games were played in the Netherlands in the 15th century. The game, which spread to Scotland over time, has become the national game of the country. The first championship of small-scale golf was held in Scotland. Nowadays Turkey has become a golf court with tournaments held at our internationally qualified golf courses. Especially Mediterranean region increases its golf tourism potential with its cultural, historical, and natural structure, as well as with its qualified golf courses and facilities. Golf courses in our country are generally established in areas close to the sea, shopping and entertainment centers where visitors can spend time alone with nature. Apart from having some standard features, unlike many sports branches, there is no similarity in the design of golf courses. Golf courses generally consist of 18 courses and are designed differently according to the geographical conditions in which they are established. In each track, it is specified how many strokes (par) the player should finish the game, and the players try to finish their game with the least number of strokes.

The starting point of the game on the golf course is called "Tee". These regions are expressed in black, white, yellow, and red colors according to the distance to the finish distance. For professional men, the starting point is the tee area, marked in white, which represents the longest distance. Yellow amateur male, black professional female, and red amateur female players are the regions where they hit first. The area where the ball is inserted into the target hole is called the "Green". The walking path between "Tee" and "Green" is called "Fairway". The area outside of these areas, consisting of grass fields and dwarf plants that require less maintenance, is called "Rough". In addition, sand traps called "Bunkers" and mini ponds are included in a golf game to make the game difficult and add excitement. The natural environment, slopes, and the structure of the trees also play a role in determining the difficulty level of the game. 
Each golf course has a "Green Keeper" in charge of preparing the field for the game. Green Keeper has an assistant and technical staff working according to the size of the field. In Turkey, there are a total of 22 golf courses, 14 in Antalya, 3 in Bodrum, one under construction, 1 in Kuşadası, 1 in Samsun, 2 in Istanbul, and 1 in Ankara. The courses of Ankara Golf Club and Samsun Metropolitan Municipality Golf Club have 9 holes. We as Avengrass team completed most of these clubs’ construction phases and encourage the growth of golf as a sport in turkey as well as in many European countries.
Preparing The Ground For Satisfying Golf Time
Since golf courses are built in very large areas, they are sports areas that require intensive labor and knowledge to maintain. In the grass plant of these areas, the most suitable grass species, species, and varieties are selected considering the climatic conditions of the region. Tifway-419 and Tifdwarf-328 varieties of Bermuda Grass (Cynodon dactylon) are used especially in golf courses in Antalya, Bodrum, and Kuşadası regions where the Mediterranean climate is dominant. On the golf courses in Istanbul, Samsun, and Ankara, perennial grass (Lolium perenne), reed ball (Festuca arundinacea), meadow bluegrass (Poa pratensis), delicate peacock (Agrostis stolonifera), which are grass types that can be grown more easily in cool conditions and stay green all year round. 
Maintenance operations (forming, spraying, irrigation, etc.) on golf courses start and finish very early in the morning (6.00-08.00) before the players arrive on the field. The green areas where the ball is put into the hole are cut from a height of 3-4 mm every day, the tee areas are cut from a height of 10-12 mm every other day, the fairway areas are cut from a height of 12-16 mm every 2 days and the rough areas are cut from a height of 35-50 mm every 4-7 days. Shape intervals and heights may vary according to the seasons. A staff working in the field can mow 4-6 greens per day. grass, which forms the main grass cover in the golf courses in Antalya, Kuşadası, and Bodrum, slows down its development with the colder weather in autumn and turns yellow in colder weather. In order to eliminate the yellowing appearance, the entire field is seeded from the top with cool climate grass species (Lolium perenne, Poa trivialis), usually between the end of September and the first weeks of October. Considering the number of seeds used in the applications made in some golf courses below, it is seen that there is intense seed usage. Especially in the winter periods, the extreme cold of the weather in Europe plays an important role in the preference of golf players. In general, the most intense golf games are between September - December, and February - June. The quietest period is between July and August.
