The major reason that Tuscany Reserve is and will always be one of the best maintained courses in Florida is because it was designed with a type of grass called Paspalum. Paspalum is a salt tolerant grass, which is a huge advantage in a scarce fresh water environment. Currently Naples has had a low level of rainfall, so being able to use salt water is a tremendous advantage! Many of my guests have even asked if it was astroturf because of how strong the grass is and how green and plush it is. The blades of grass tend to grow into each other, which makes it difficult to takes divots from, but most people still find a way. Another interesting thing is that because the grass does grow different than most, you'll find that your golf cart will feel like the axel is loose when it's simply the grass affecting the traction of the tires. Paspalum has been a tremendous success at Tuscany Reserve and the new TPC(tournament players course) at Treviso Bay is also using Paspalum on the their new course, which is currently under construction.Contact David Auston at 239.273.1376 or David@DavidNaples.com
