Golf Digest is requesting to see a SofTrak green?

We at SofTrak were very excited that Golf Digest had heard about SofTrak, the quality of our greens and wanted to visit a one.  The request was actually to see a “vintage SofTrak green”; the true test of quality is time.

As with most the country our plans were effected by the hurricanes and disasters of the summer of 2005. The visit to the green had to be rescheduled multiple times due to weather related factors, we were beginning to wonder if it would ever happen; finally successful arrangements were made.  They greens visited were 4000 sq foot greens both part of the same project installed by Greens by Design, a dealership owned by Steve Goldberg.  They had been in place just under two years.

Following the visit we waited anxiously for an update on Golf Digest’s experience and impression of SofTrak.  Did we make the grade, what would he have to say?  The Finally the phone rang and it was  Dan Shepard with our PR firm.  “Ron hit shots into the green from teeing areas, from greenside bunkers and putted extensively. Ron was impressed and said he’d never experienced such a high-performance synthetic green. He says Golf Digest has a synthetic green at its Wilton, Ct., headquarters and it pales compared to the SofTrak green he tested today. Furthermore, he said he’d never seen such a sophisticated synthetic green complex.”
