Putting Greens for Golf Enthusiasts

Putting Greens for Golf Enthusiasts

With 29 million golf players in the U.S., you could say the sport is fairly popular. Some play in the professional industry while others are more into it as a recreational activity. Whichever the use, Texas Custom Turf installs putting greens for your needs. A fair number of community and professional golf courses have started to switch over to synthetic putting greens because of the ease of maintenance and the optimal performance. Synthetic putting greens are maintained like any other synthetic turf – rinse with a hose and water. They perform just as well, if not better, as regular golf courses. They are specifically designed to withstand game use time after time, and keep their texture and composition no matter the season.

 

A few ingredients make up synthetic turf:

  1. Decomposed Granite: This is the foundation for your putting green as it keeps the surface incredibly level. It is made out of a clay-like texture that provides a surface the ball needs to roll realistically.
  2. Three-Inch Nails: Since the blades on the turf are a lot shorter than regular commercial turf, they require three-inch nails rather than six-inch nails.
  3. Durafill: This makes sure the ball doesn’t bounce and gives it that backspin to grab onto the surface. The small granules also help with the smooth surface and play the role as an abrasive.

 

Eco-Friendly and Authentic Look & Feel

The synthetic putting green also feels and looks authentic. With such minimal maintenance, it is eco-friendly. Our installers are able to customize for your optimal size of putting green, including installments for your backyard. Some individuals prefer to have their own backyard putting green as a way to entertain guests or satisfy their golf enthusiast needs. Check out the pictures below to see some of the backyard putting green jobs we have installed.

The outer fringe borders the putting green to give it a more realistic appeal for your backyard. Luckily, the turf even keeps its green color all year long and requires minimal maintenance. Water is only used if you need to spray some debris off the blades. The putting greens are made with a texturized polypropylene that keeps the strength and stability for several years. Even the height of the blades is customizable for your preferences.
