Does Synthetic Grass Really Cut Costs?

The short answer is — absolutely! Most golf facilities lose money as a result of weather or maintenance difficulties, but synthetic tee lines never require downtime. After installation expenses, your facility will quickly earn enough revenue to get a return on your initial investment.

Reduce Tee Line Maintenance

Getting your tee line operating cost under control never been easier than with synthetic grass. Here are a few ways ditching natural grass will reduce costs.

No Mowing

Synthetic grass will never require mowing. That means no need to close the tee lines, no need to hire someone to mow, and there are no mowing equipment expenditures.

No Herbicides

Herbicides are frequently required to keep weeds at bay — not when you have synthetic turf.

No Pesticides

Pesticides get a bad rap, and for justified reasons. They are corrosive chemicals and costly too.

No Watering

For a 1,000 square foot installation, this can equate to savings of 70,000 gallons yearly, or as much as $350 saved on the water bill, alone.

Cost-Effective, Enhanced Playability

Facilities are quickly figuring out that waterless, low-maintenance synthetic turf driving lines and putting areas make customers happy and bring value to the bottom line. Artificial putting green turf, tee lines, and hitting stations enable you to swing from a surface with a seamless feel but with a level of resilience that is not found in nature.

Less Maintenance

Without the need for routine fertilizing, pest control, and mowing, the return-on-investment of artificial grass simply makes the most sense.

Resilient

Allows the player to use all their clubs to perfect their swing without ripping up the grass. Additionally, you can still sink your tee into the turf like you would on a regular turf.

Safe Play

The grass will never get muddy and slippery in rainstorms, and will not result in dips and divots.

Endless Design Possibilities

The sky is indeed the limit. Because artificial turf is so multifaceted, it can be placed in anywhere, and in several styles.

Modular Designs

Modular tee lines produce easier and more cost-efficient ways to substitute pieces rather than replacing the whole panel or tee line.

Continuous Tee Line

Enables the tee line to be set wherever on the surface while preserving a neat, genuine look.

Adaptable Hitting Mats

Hitting mats could be conveniently rotated to extend the life of the hitting area, while still supplying precisely defined hitting stations for symmetry.
