Practice your short game any time through indoor putting greens.

Suppose you're pondering installing an indoor putting surface in your residence or business, here are answers to several most frequent questions we get.

 

WHY INSTALL AN INDOOR PUTTING GREEN?

Indoor putting greens and practice mats are the perfect ways for any golfer wanting to keep practicing, rain or shine, day or night. With indoor greens, you can easily spend lots of time fine-tuning your putting accuracy to cut your handicap.

 

WHERE CAN I INSTALL AN INDOOR GREEN?

This is a question we frequently receive. With a practice mat or indoor putting green, you can put it in your residence, workplace, or cellar — the options are many! The initial thing you should determine is whether this will be a forever fixed piece or if you need something you can take on the go.

 

WHAT’S THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN AN INDOOR GREEN AND A PUTTING KIT?

An indoor putting green is installed directly over the subbase. The artificial turf is installed to the floor to endure for years to come. You can also incorporate border grass and chipping areas to make a fantastic indoor golfing experience if room permits.

In the meantime, a practice mat or putting kit is a piece of grass that can be packed away and taken on the go. It can fundamentally be rolled out on any surface anywhere and effortlessly packs up.

 

WHAT IMPACTS THE INDOOR PUTTING GREEN COST?

Haven’t we all been surprised by a price that prompts us to ask the question, “why does it cost so much?!” We like to stay forward of that question and be clear regarding what it takes when making our indoor putting greens. Here is a cost overview for you.

Base Materials & Site Prep

Even though the base materials and site prep will be minimal for an indoor putting green compared to what you need for outdoors, nevertheless there needs to be a structurally sound base. If the turf will lay over concrete, the cups might be required to be bored or drilled out.

Design, Features, and Size

One of the biggest components influencing an indoor putting green price is the size, design, and unique features. Features like customized shapes and multi-cup characteristics will contribute the most crucial role in how much your particular grass will cost.

Number of Cuts

The number of cuts your grass requires, will be dependent on where you are planning to install the grass. If there are obstacles that cannot be moved (such as support beams or walls), you might have to have more cuts than a standard square. Turf could also be cut into curves for a out of the ordinary look.

Installation Costs

Synthetic golf greens need a higher level of skill for design and installation. Given our initial beginning in the golf industry in 1996, Southwest Greens has genuinely perfected the art of golf construction. It brings us a lot of pride in creating beautiful turf, regardless of the size.

 

HOW MUCH DOES AN INDOOR PUTTING GREEN COST?

If you desire an artificial green that’s a fixed part of your house, the installation will be more involved than a practice mat or putting kit. Indoor putting green installation expenses will be a bigger investment but definitely worth it in the long run. Our golf green costs range from $20 to $25 per sq-ft, but asking for an estimate is the way to discover just how much your individual project would be.
