You don’t have to be a golf enthusiast to enjoy a backyard putting green. It’s a wonderful way to make parties more fun! Had a stressful day? Relax with a drink and a few putts. Perhaps best of all, a backyard putting green can help you take your skills to the next level if you’re an avid golfer.
In terms of material, you have two options: natural grass or artificial turf. Real grass is definitely more traditional, especially since it’s what you find on most golf courses. But when it comes to backyard putting greens, artificial grass in Santa Rosa CA is the superior choice. Here’s why:
Perfect Ball Roll Every Time
Artificial turf’s even, dense surface guarantees that your ball will roll perfectly every time. Natural grass is prone to developing dips, bumps and divots, making it almost impossible to get consistent ball roll.
And if you do achieve a perfect roll with natural grass, it won’t stay that way for long – you’ll have to reset it after each session. Artificial turf’s level surface eliminates that hassle.
Putting Greens are Incredibly Customizable
Synthetic turf is highly customizable and can be cut to fit almost any shape, size or layout. It’s also super simple to personalize it with almost any putting green feature you want.
Need to practice breaking putts? Your artificial turf installer in Santa Rosa can install a set of contoured levels or undulations. Want to challenge yourself to make long-distance putts? Install some elevated tiers.
While you can certainly customize real grass, it’s much more difficult. You’ll need to constantly maintain the turf around the features or else it will take over the green and render them useless.
No Mud to Hinder Your Putts
Mud is annoying on a regular lawn. On a putting green? Disastrous. Mud can impede the roll of your ball, making it difficult to make accurate putts. It can also drown the grass and destroy all the hardwork you put into trimming, mowing, and edging just to make it playable.
Artificial grass in Santa Rosa CA has an open-cell backing that allows water to drain away quickly and efficiently, so it never has a chance to build up into puddles. With no soil underneath the turf, mud problems are a thing of the past.
Artificial Grass Putting Greens are Much Easier to Maintain
As anyone who owns a natural lawn knows, it takes a ton of time and energy to maintain it. Expect to sacrifice weekends working on your lawn – fertilizing, pulling out weeds, mowing, and everything else that goes along with it.
Synthetic grass in Santa Rosa requires almost no maintenance other than periodic brushing and the occasional cleaning of debris. It’s so easy to maintain, you can enjoy your putting green without spending all of your free time caring for it.
