I only use a Poly line if it doesn't have any Turf lines. Match the surface, Poly would only be if no Turf lines (plural here)exist.

Thanks Mitch, yes usually the synthetic I cap like turf as well, save you usually want to be more forwardly placed, but agree a lot of interchangeable parts there....
Thank you
