Ball Mark Repair

I am reposting this video that demonstrates the proper method for repairing ball marks.  Play has been picking up on the course and ball marks are becoming very noticeable.  It is not hard to repair a ball mark and it only takes a few seconds.

Two things are critical to repairing a ball mark correctly:

1. Pull the grass from the edges to the center of the mark. - When a ball mark is made, it is very likely that grass will die in the middle of the mark.  Pulling the grass from the edges to the center leave less area for the grass to cover while healing.

2. Tap the repaired mark level after fixing. - After fixing the mark, always tap any raised grass level.  This leaves a level surface for the next group.
