Practice your short game any day now with indoor putting greens.
If you are considering installing an indoor putting surface to your residence or workplace, here are answers to few of the most frequent questions we get.
WHY INVEST IN AN INDOOR PUTTING GREEN?
Indoor putting greens and training mats are ideal tools for any Fresno golfer looking to practice, whatever the weather, day or night. Through indoor greens, you can effortlessly spend plenty of time refining your putting accuracy to cut your handicap.
WHERE CAN I INSTALL AN INDOOR GREEN?
We are frequently asked this very question. With a practice mat or indoor putting green, you can put it in your home, office, or basement — the options are plentiful! The first thing you want to determine is whether this will be a permanently installed piece or if you need something you can have on the go.
WHAT’S THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN AN INDOOR GREEN AND A PUTTING KIT?
An indoor putting green is affixed directly over the subbase. The synthetic turf is fixed to the floor to hold up for years. You can also incorporate border grass and chipping areas to have a wonderful indoor golfing experience if space permits.
On the other hand, a practice mat or putting kit is a portion of grass that can be wrapped up and carried on the go. It can basically be rolled out on any surface anywhere and easily packs up.
WHAT IMPACTS THE INDOOR PUTTING GREEN PRICE?
Haven’t we all had sticker shock that forces ask the question, “why is the price so high?!” We prefer to stay forward of that question and be clear about what goes into producing our indoor putting greens. Here is a breakdown for you.
Base Materials & Site Preparation
Even though the base materials and site prep will be lowest for an indoor putting green versus what you need for outdoors, there still must be a structurally sound base. If the grass will be installed over concrete, the cups might need to be drilled or bored out.
Features, Size, and Design
One of the biggest components determining an indoor putting green cost is the size, design, and unique features. Features like custom shapes and multi-cup features will be the most crucial contributor in how much your own turf will cost.
Number of Cuts
The number of cuts your grass has to have, will depend on where you are going to install the turf. If there are in the way that can’t be moved (like support beams or walls), you might need more cuts than a standard square. Turf could also be cut into curves for a extraordinary look.
Installation Costs
Artificial golf greens need a high level of mastery for installation and design. Since our introduction in the golf industry in 1996, Southwest Greens has genuinely perfected the art of golf construction. We have a lot of pride in creating gorgeous grass, regardless of the size.
HOW MUCH DOES AN INDOOR PUTTING GREEN COST?
If you want a synthetic green that is a fixed part of your home, the installation will be more involved than a practice mat or putting kit. Indoor putting green installation costs will be a more extensive investment but definitely worth it in the long run. Our golf green prices average from $20 to $25 per sq-ft, but getting a quote is the best way to learn just how much your particular project will be.
