Practice your short game any time with indoor putting greens.

Suppose you are pondering adding an indoor putting surface in your home or office, here are answers to few of the most frequently asked questions we get.

 

WHY SPEND MONEY ON AN INDOOR PUTTING GREEN?

Indoor putting greens and training mats are ideal solutions for Austin golfers wanting to practice, anytime. Using indoor greens, you can easily spend lots of time perfecting your putting accuracy to trim 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 have it in your residence, workplace, or cellar — the options are many! The first thing you should determine is whether this will be a always fixed piece or if you desire 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 straight over the subbase. The artificial turf is installed to the floor to hold up for years. You can also integrate border grass and chipping areas to make a fantastic indoor golfing experience if room allows.

In the meantime, a practice mat or putting kit is a portion of green that can be wrapped up and taken on the go. It can essentially be rolled out on any surface everywhere and effortlessly packs up.

 

WHAT INFLUENCES THE INDOOR PUTTING GREEN PRICE?

Haven’t we all seen a price tag that prompts us to ask the question, “why is the price so high?!” We choose to stay ahead of that query and be clear regarding what goes into making our indoor putting greens. Here is an analysis for you.

Base Materials & Site Prep

While the base materials and site prep will be negligible for an indoor putting green in comparison with what is needed for outdoors, there must be a structurally sound base. If the green will be installed over concrete, the cups may be required to be bored or drilled out.

Features, Size, and Design

One of the major factors determining an indoor putting green price is the size, design, and additional features. Elements like tailored shapes and multi-cup features will contribute the most significant factor in how much your specific green will cost.

Number of Cuts

The number of cuts your grass will require, will depend on where you are going to install the grass. If there are barriers that can’t be moved (like support beams or walls), you may require more cuts than a regular square. Grass could also be cut into shapes for a out of the ordinary appearance.

Installation Costs

Artificial golf greens require a high level of skill for installation and design. Since our start in the golf industry in 1996, Southwest Greens has sincerely perfected the art of golf construction. We take pride in building beautiful turf, regardless of the size.

 

HOW MUCH DOES AN INDOOR PUTTING GREEN COST?

If you need an artificial green that is a permanent part of your space, the installation will be more intensive than a practice mat or putting kit. Indoor putting green installation costs will be a bigger investment but quite worth it in the long run. Our golf green costs hover from $20 to $25 per ft2, but getting an estimate is the way to find just how much your individual project will cost.
