What Every Golfer Should Know About Home Putting Greens

What Every Golfer Should Know About Home Putting Greens

How do you say goodbye to 3 and 4 putts? Practice, practice,
practice. The key to improving your short game lies in putting
practice. But where?

You can practice conveniently on your own home putting green and
it may even increase the value of your home. If you’re thinking
about installing a putting green, there are several factors to
take into consideration.

Will your putting green be portable?

Roll out greens come in many sizes. Popular sizes are 2′ x 6′,
3′ x 12′ to 6′ x 15′. Some feature a regulation cup, while
others have a smaller cup than regulation size, which will hone
your targetting. Some feature a ball return.

Will you install your green inside or outside?

Indoors, there are small practice greens, rollout greens and
larger indoor greens. Large indoor greens can be as large as 12′
x 30′. Outdoor greens can be as large as you want.

How much do you want to spend?

Roll-out greens can be found in a wide range of prices from $20
to $300. Larger indoor greens can cost as much as $700. When you
start looking at outdoor putting greens, you are talking about
costs per square foot for all of the materials – the green
material and the base layers.

What material will your green be made of?

Indoor greens are synthetic of course. When you’re considering
outdoor putting greens, you have a choice of materials. Your
choice is natural grass or an artificial turf.

At first glance, you may think all-natural grass might be best.
Think again though. If you choose grass, you will need to spend
time maintaining the green. The question is, would you rather be
mowing, watering, feeding and weeding OR putting? Since most
golfers choose putting, let’s talk about artificial greens.

Artificial outdoor putting greens

With an artificial putting green, maintenance is minimal which
means more time to putt. The synthetic fibers are manufactured
to resist fading and matting.

There are two popular UV-treated materials: polypropylene turf
and nylon turf. Nylon turf is easier to maintain than
polyropylene turf. The fibers spring back so your ball has a
true roll to the cup. Nylon turf is also denser than
polypropylene turf.

Polypropylene turf needs sand fill to keep the fibers upright.
During installation, sand is spread across the top of the
polypropylene surface and brushed into the turf with a broom.
Since the sand can wear away, from time to time, you’ll need to
add more sand.

Outdoor putting greens also require a base of stone or concrete.
The cups are concreted into place. As for drainage, synthetic
turfs drain off the turf, not through it. Drainage needs to be
provided.

How fast will your outdoor green be?

Another decision you’ll make is regarding green speed. Stimp
measures how fast the green is. You can have your green speed
matched to your local courses or to a championship course. In
general, adding more sand to your synthetic green makes it
faster.

Will you Do-it-Yourself?

You can buy a putting green kit to install yourself. Many come
with video instructions. Depending on the size and design, you
may need help in installing the green.

Once your new putting green is installed, you can enjoy hours of
putting practice and improve your golf game. For a putting green

Artificial Greens: The Benefits for Your Commercial Property

April 1, 2010 by  
Filed under Going Green

The benefits of installing artificial green grass setups on your commercial property can be summarized very easily:

(a) Comfort: the comfort that the artificial green grass is definitely comparable to the comfort provided by actual green grass. The only real difference is that with the artificial green grass, you get an extra rubber fitting just below the greens that will actually provide your feet an incomparable comfort level should you ever decide to walk through your garden, across your finely trimmed lawn, without any footwear. The bouncy soft undersurface also comes in handy when you have rambunctious children (or even a couple of rambunctious adults on NFL Sunday) to worry about â?? you can rest assured that anyone who falls on the grass will have a soft and safe landing. And yes, this extends to commercial use at theme parks and sports facilities.

(b) Safety: a benefit unto itself. The right choice for an aesthetic garden also provides the best safety measures for use on commercial properties, including theme parks and sports facilities.  This is especially realized when you have large numbers of people utilizing a given space, as the rubber top of the artificial green grass is relatively easy to keep clean and you can  virtually assure that people are not be injured as a result of a fall on the grass.
(c) Relaxation: the rich green coloration of the artificial green grass provides a cool soothing feel to the eyes that actually helps to relax the mind. Surrounding yourself with a fresh green lawn is actually a proven way of relieving stress and improving your moods.

Once upon a time, the only individuals and businesses who could afford to have fresh green lawns were those who had the money to pay for gardeners and professional landscape designers. Once upon a time, the upkeep of robust green grass really did demand massive amounts of time, effort, and money.
To be able to manage a real grass lawn properly, you need a substantial water supply and the means to trim it and weed the entire surface of the grass on a regular basis. During the summer and winter, you are also faced with environmental or weather related challenges (summer sun can dry out grass and the winter weather can damage its development, undermining its appearance).

Not anymore though.
The development of artificial grass has provided homeowners and grounds managers with the means of enjoying green grass without the hassle of having to trim and water it on a regular basis. Itâ??s even more recently that artificial grass has become affordable, but these days, the installation of artificial grass can certainly be considered an investment for many garden owners. Although the prices of the installation may seem expensive, the benefits of the set up are realized very quickly and most artificial grass pays for itself in no time.
Packed with all the necessary features needed to make the entire set-up more self-sustaining and well kept on its own, the artificial grass works are most often than not considered to be most practical for use especially for those who could not provide much time and expensive budgeting for keeping their lawn grasses as green as possible.

There are several different types of artificial grass to choose from. Most are not only easy to install, they are cost effective for the value that they add to your property and very easy to maintain.

For that super natural grass feel and look, we offer Fresh Cut 67 and 107, which come with monofilament or dual-filament (67 versus 107), a polyethylene finish, sand filling, and urethane backing. If youâ??re looking for a very high quality natural feel, we also offer Classic 36, Realistic, Saw Grass, Turf Lawn 26, True Grass XL42, True Grass XL24, Sod Grass, and Classic 48, all of which offer varying degrees of the most natural finishes and feels available, plus high quality draining features in some cases, along with other additional safety features suitable for application in larger spaces.
As expert developers of golf courses, we also offer a range of turfs that are especially designed to be durable for sporting activities, including the Iron Woods and Bump and Run designs, which are serviceable on golf courses for chipping, driving, and t-boxes; Playerâ??s Choice, Plush One, Putt One, True Putt, All Sport, Sport Turf, True Putt, Special, T-Turf.

Call National Greens today to find out how soon you can start enjoying your very own green lawn.

We sell and install residential backyard, lawn, playground and commercial sport surfaces. Please visit our website for more information and take advantage of our experience.
