Tee Times 4 Turf - Thank You for Your Support!

The Michigan Turfgrass Foundation (MTF) would like to thank all the courses that donated to the 2026 TeeTimes4Turf golf auction.

The auction concluded on Mother's Day at 7:00 p.m., and the TT4Turf Committee—led by Chair Doug Ware, along with Ben Keeler and Eric Davey—is thrilled to announce that $73,909 was raised. With individuals bidding on over 200 courses, this year saw a remarkable 25% increase in proceeds, which speaks to the incredible support from both those who donated their courses and those who bid to play them.

These funds directly benefit the MSU Turf Team and turf students, who greatly appreciate everyone’s participation. Thank you again for your support, and please stay tuned for next year's event.

The MTF congratulates Board Member Brian Schweihofer for receiving the 2026 GAM Superintendent Award of Merit!

at the Hancock Turfgrass Research Center: “With all the recent rain a little vent with the pencil tines to help with infiltration.

Michigan State University Research dating back to the 1980s and 90s (Murphy & Rieke) demonstrated that solid-tine aeration can increase surface infiltration by improving macropore continuity. More recent studies continue to support this, showing that while solid-tine cultivation can improve infiltration compared to no cultivation, its effects are often smaller and less persistent than more disruptive practices that address organic matter and deeper soil structure.”
