Golf Course Operations Savings Using Zenith® Zoysia

View an Online Presentation on Golf Applications for Zenith Zoysia Seed

With Zenith Zoysiagrass, golf courses can now convert old fairways, tees and roughs using seed - saving as much as 90 percent of a course's sodding expense.  A golf course might spend up to $15,000 per acre sodding its fairways.  Those same fairways today can be converted to Zenith Zoysiagrass for less than $1,000 an acre, with seed that - if planted in timely fashion and properly managed - can produce zoysia tees and fairways in a single season.

And a big bucket of additional savings also lies in store for the life of a course with Zenith Zoysia. For instance, a club with 30 acres of fairways could enjoy these zoysia benefits that potentially add up to tens of thousands of maintenance dollars trimmed or put to other valuable member services (savings may vary between golf courses):

• A Zenith course needs seeding just once, creating annual savings for re-seeding of cool season fairways of $5,000 to $10,000 per year.
• A cool-season course in the transition zone could save $3,000 to $5,000 per year in maintenance costs - including mowing and irrigation.
• Fungicide applications necessary to keep cool-season grasses alive int he dog days of summer can be substantially reduced, saving as much as $20,000 a year!

Zoysiagrass is adapted over most of the U.S. and all temparate to tropic climates around the world.

Match your club’s current cool-season and weedy summer fairway conditions and expenses against the benefits of hybrid Zenith Zoysiagrass, and you’ll see why zoysia fairways and tees are becoming more and more in demand by golfers all over. The conversion to Zenith Zoysia pays for itself in both installation and perpetual maintenance savings, year after year after year.
