They are constructed basically to not retain any water.

Mass Exodus at one golf club I was previously a member at, all the greens destroyed by leatherjackets.

It is not the leather jackets themselves but the birds digging them out to feed on . Going to be a problem on lots of course because the chemicals that were used to kill the leatherjscket grubs have now been banned.
We are trying a 'mechanical' method at the moment. The green is cover by a tarpaulin the night before which makes the grubs rise to the surface. In the morning the tarp is taken of and all the grubs are bushed up and discarded well away from the green.
Immaculate. Complete rebuild of the 8th green too
Wish ours had been left a bit longer/slower - putting has been worst bit of my game this summer - and it was fine first week or so back before they got them up to normal speed.interesting that many posters share the slightly longer/slower greens this year. a deliberate ploy to protect the greens for the only summer not full of competitions and pro ams etc?
You probably play on USGA greens I'm guessing.
