If you love to play golf but struggle to find the time and money to go down to your local course, then why not have a putting green installed in your backyard?

This will allow you to play and practise whenever you want, by yourself or with your mates. You will even be able to entertain your kids with a game of mini putt-putt.

The most important part of this process is finding the right surface material. While natural grass is great for public golf courses, there is a range of benefits to using artificial turf for putting greens. 

Completely Customisable

Depending on the space available and planned use, the specifications of your putting green will be different. This is especially true for a backyard setup compared to large-scale public golf courses. 

If you’re an avid golfer then you will know exactly what you want. When you’re starting from scratch with synthetic grass, you will have the option to customise the shape, size and feel of the grass you use. So, your vision can come to life. 

We recommend opting for our high-quality sports grass when installing a putting green, as it is specifically designed for sporting fields of all kinds. 

Installing a putting green can also be a great way to use any odd-shaped spaces in your backyard. Any structural poles or downpipes that end up in the middle of your green will just add an extra level of difficulty, and help improve your skills. 

Highly Durable

All of our synthetic grasses are designed to withstand heavy use and impact. 

Our sports grass has been manufactured out of high-performing and durable fibres. It’s also been tested and meets the highest international performance standards.This makes it the perfect surface for any combination of sports, including golf. 

With a synthetic putting green, you will be able to play for hours and never have to worry about stumbling in a hole. 

Low Maintenance

Real grass requires hours of maintenance, with mowing, weeding, watering and fertilising. This leaves little time for your hobbies.

Artificial turf on the other hand doesn’t require any of this. Once it’s installed you can pretty much forget about it. Just hose it down or blow it off a few times a year and you’re good to go.

All the time you save not having to maintain your yard can be spent perfecting your putting and chipping skills. This way next time you go head-to-head with your mates you’ll be able to show off your new skills. 

Perfect Texture

As a golfer, you will understand the importance of having the perfect playing surface. 

The texture of your grass can affect how far your ball rolls. Grass that is too long or thick can slow its roll, and cause your puts to fall short regardless of your skill level.

When you’re designing your synthetic grass putting green you may choose to opt for our shorter sport grass for the putting area, and then use a longer length for the fringe grass. This will help your landscape look nicer and more like a real golf course. 

Quick Draining

While a sudden downpour can put you off your game at the real golf course, with synthetic turf you will always be able to practise your skills in your backyard. Or you can keep your plans, and invite your mates over for a game of golf on your mini-course.

Synthetic turf is highly porous, so the water won’t pool and create a muddy surface. So, your backyard putting green will be ready to use within minutes of the sun returning.
