The Primo Maxx Fairway Challenge, organised by Scotts
Professional and Syngenta, gives turf managers the opportunity to
use a programme of Primo Maxx and the new water-soluble fertilizer
from Scotts, Sportsmaster WSF High N, on one selected fairway, and
to score the results against an untreated fairway. The 'before' and
'after' assessments will be made by the greenkeeper and club
secretary or golf professional.

Challenge, what is required and to view the entry form as a
guide on what to record.
Fairway quality improvements from the combined Primo Maxx and
turf nutrition programme will be judged on selected attributes
important to individual greenkeepers, including turf density,
mowing reduction, colour, drought resistance, divot recovery, root
development, wear tolerance and cutting pattern retention.
The Primo Maxx Fairway Challenge is an ideal opportunity to show
club management and players the great improvements in fairway
quality that can be achieved. Syngenta and Scotts are so confident
that course managers will see a beneficial result, that they are
offering a 'Money-Back Guarantee'* on the Primo Maxx Fairway
Challenge investment.
Completing The Primo Maxx Fairway Challenge will also give entry
to a free Prize Draw, with the winner receiving travel,
accommodation and entrance for two to the world-leading US Golf
Industry Show (GIS), to be held in Las Vegas in February 2012.
Syngenta Turf & Landscape Portfolio Manager, Rod Burke,
highlights Primo Maxx is now widely used on golf greens and tees.
"For those already using Primo Maxx on fairways the primary
objective has been to simplify management and give greater
flexibility through reduced mowing requirement. However, we have
had repeated comments that the turf quality of fairways has been
significantly enhanced with the Primo Maxx programme and the right
nutrition.
"These improvements have also been identified by the club
management and players, which can help course managers gain the
financial commitment to deliver better overall turf quality across
the course."
The Primo Maxx Fairway Challenge will involve a programme of
three Primo Maxx applications between June and September, each
tank-mixed with Scotts Sportsmaster WSF High N fertilizer. The
Scotts Sportsmaster WSF range consists of three high quality
premium foliar fertilizers, for enhanced foliar and root nutrient
uptake. The range covers all turf feeding requirements and
seasons.
Ed Carter, Scotts Professional National Key Accounts and
Development Manager, added: "The prize of a trip to the
US Golf Industry Show is an amazing experience to see the
very latest advances in turf management, and identify opportunities
to improve turf quality in the UK. In 2012 there's the added
attraction of it being held in Las Vegas."
The Golf Industry Show and Education Conferences is organised by
the Golf Course Superintendents Association of America and attracts
over 17,000 turf managers and industry specialists from all over
the world. The education programme covers both agronomic and
economic aspects of golf course management.
The Primo Maxx Fairway Challenge is open to all golf courses
across England, Scotland and Wales. Clubs must register by 16 July
to take part in the 2010 Challenge.
