How can you upgrade putt consistency if you’re putting on a substandard turf that doesn’t have natural action?

 

NOT EVERY SYNTHETIC GRASS IS MADE EQUAL

If you’re seeking for lifelike synthetic turf for a industrial or residential golf green plan, you can’t grab a roll of turf from the local big box store. Your experience will unlike what you experience at your home course.

When it comes to artificial turf, you want a product where a chip shot will land, bounce, roll, stop, and react as naturally to a real golf green. And to maximize your capital, you want a putt to break and roll realistically from club face to the cup. It’s not too much to ask for, professional player or not.

 

HOW TO SELECT A QUALITY TURF

One of the first features to search for when researching artificial turf for your golf green projects in Albuquerque should be the play qualities of actual golf courses.


Let’s start with landing on the green.

When you land a chip shot on the green, you hope it to be acquired by the grass properly, bounce adequately, and roll normally, confidently, to the cup. That last part is as you please, though. Unfortunately, many artificial grass products can’t provide on that, failing to supply the same bounce as genuine greens do. Our Golden Bear product line is particularly and specifically designed to be realistic in this respect and provide 20-25% more ball retention than other prominent artificial grass products.

 

WHY GOLDEN BEAR GRASS

Putting is arguably where the appropriate roll, aim, and natural golf ball action turns even more vital. How can you possibly ameliorate putt consistency if you’re putting on a poor quality turf that doesn’t have natural action?

Whether you battle with cut-throughs, spin, shoving, putter release, or even recovering from missed putts, realistic golf ball action matters. Repeating your aim and routine on a synthetic golf green that isn’t up to the same pattern as the greens at the course could be more damaging to your game than useful. If you want to improve your putting, you have to discover a life-like synthetic grass designed for golf.
