About this file
This document is a soil testing report from A. McNitt & SerenSoil Testing for a sample of DGI K-Sand submitted by Davisson Golf, Inc. on January 28, 2023, with testing completed between January 28 and February 1, 2023. The report provides a comprehensive analysis of the sand's physical and compositional properties, including particle size distribution, sieve size analysis, and physical properties, with comparisons to United States Golf Association (USGA) specifications.
The analysis reveals that the sand sample consists of 95.7% sand, 3.0% silt, and 1.3% clay, with a particle size distribution predominantly in the medium sand range (0.5 - 0.25 mm) at 57.8%. The sample demonstrates angular to medium sphericity with a uniformity coefficient (Cu) of 2.1, which falls within the USGA recommended range of 1.8 - 3.5. Physical properties such as bulk density (1.44 g/cm³), total porosity (45.5%), and hydraulic conductivity (36.4 in/hr) are also reported, with most measurements aligning closely with USGA specifications. The organic matter percentage is notably low at 0.17%, and there are no acid reactions detected in the sample.
