many would simply quit the game. There was a report on 60 minutes in the late 1990s that clearly showed the extent of the problem.
60 minutes hired a private company to take arial photographs of several golf courses in the New York city area. The company used special optics on their cameras and issued a chilling report. The areas of greatest contamination were shown in bright yellow; all 18 holes of every course were vivid yellow, every course was completely contaminated.
We can do without these toxic chemicals and get back to the way golf used to be. Do we really need these toxic chemicals just to make the courses more beautiful. I want to see more weeds !
