Celebrate 2016 The Year of Zoysia at GIS

SAN DIEGO - Feb. 3, 2016 - PRLog -- At the Golf Industry Show in San Diego (#GIS16), Team Zoysia celebrates 2016 as the Year of Zoysia at Booth #3657.  This year, the world’s most high profile golf projects chose zoysiagrass as their playing surface. These include: The golf course at the 2016 Rio Olympic Games; Tiger Woods’ first US course, Bluejack National; Trinity Forest, new home of the AT&T Byron Nelson; and The Golf Club of Texas, the world’s 1st 100% zoysia course.

Meet the grass experts of Team Zoysia who helped bring these projects to fruition. David Doguet, who bred & developed the Zeon, L1F, and JaMur Zoysia varieties used on these courses; Dr. Milt Engelke, one of the world’s most renowned zoysiagrass researchers; Ken Mangum, CGCS, one of the country’s most respected zoysiagrass superintendents, and others.

Zoysia has many environmental, sustainable attributes including very low nitrogen requirements, less water and less mowing. Plus, its upright nature makes the ball sit up as if on a tee.

For these and many more reasons, 2016 is the Year of Zoysia.
