The tendency in golf courses is, I believe towards more "manicured" courses, ie less diverse less areas of rough. Certainly it depends where the courses are developed as well. In the UK some of the old golf courses ( with a lot of rough, and in sand-dune habitats (the original bunkers) are of national significance in conservation terms. I am thinking particularly of royal St Georges at Sandwich in Kent. I suppose there its a matter of how little biodiversity/ relatively udeveloped land is left elsewhere. Nevil Amos |
