cut will usually be judged as good. If the factors are out of proper relationship the wavy

Clip vs. Height of Cut —
The general rule of thumb concerning height of cut versus clip is that the best visual
appearance occurs when the clip distance is close to the height of cut.
Clip distance
approximately
equal to HOC
Clip distance
different than HOC
Clumping —
The discharge of clippings into unsightly lumps or rows. Excessive clippings besides
being unsightly may smother the grass or act as incubators for disease.
Combs or Brushes —
Attachments generally installed on the cutting unit to lift the grass blades resulting in a
cleaner cut. They also promote a more vertical growth and prevent or correct grain in the
grass.
Compaction —
Soil particles pressed closely together. Soil compaction prevents adequate water and
air penetration and reduces turfgrass root growth.
