Champions aren’t created in a single day. It takes a lot of consistent training to perfect your golf swing. But several elements of the game are directly connected with the quality of the grass you’re hitting on. Have you ever tried to golf on turf that is not perfectly manicured? It can make any game more difficult and throw off your game. This is one of the major causes why artificial turf is the first pick of many golfers. Read on to get more information.

 

WHY DO GOLFERS CHOOSE ARTIFICIAL GRASS?

CONSISTENT & RELIABLE

Synthetic turf will always be the correct length, giving you the consistency you have to have for effective practice. The texture is designed to feel and look like natural grass, without the hassle natural grass has. Below the playing surface, you will find backing systems that provide better bounce, aim, and roll, so you can rely on a predictable play of the ball regardless when you are practicing.

 

LOOKS BEAUTIFUL

A professionally installed artificial green will forever look great, regardless of weather or wear and tear it might be open to. Southwest Greens turf is created with the highest standards to provide you the best. It will not fade from sun exposure or heavy foot traffic. Ugly dead spots won’t ever be a problem, either!

 

LOW MAINTENANCE

Synthetic grass wins for lower upkeep needs. Golf greens have to be kept short, and with organic grass, this implies more mowing and trimming. Additionally, keeping weeds away will be a struggle with organic grass. Since artificial turf is not an organic material, it will keep bugs away without the constant application of pesticides.

 

BETTER DRAINAGE

Quality artificial turf has better drainage than regular grass. This is thanks to the layers underneath the turf that enables liquid to flow down through exit points of the surface quickly and efficiently. Water will not puddle on the turf as easily, and mud will become a distant memory. The putting green will be ready for play, no matter what the weather may have been

 

REDUCED WATER USE
