Champions are not made every day. It requires a lot of consistent practice to perfect your golf swing. But certain elements of the game are directly connected with the quality of the turf you are hitting on. Have you ever tried to golf on grass that isn’t perfectly mowed? It can make any sport more difficult and hurt your game. This is one of the main causes why artificial grass is the first pick of a lot of golfers. Continue reading to learn more.

WHY DO GOLFERS LIKE SYNTHETIC TURF?

CONSISTENT & RELIABLE

Artificial grass will always be the prefect length, offering you the consistency you must have for effective practice. The texture is made to feel and look like regular grass, without the trouble real grass has. Below the top layer, you will find backing systems that give better bounce, aim, and roll, so you can trust a predictable play of the ball no matter when you have time to practice.

LOOKS BEAUTIFUL

A professionally installed synthetic green will always appear amazing, no matter what weather or wear and tear it may be subjected to. Southwest Greens turf is made with the highest standards to provide you the best. It will not fade from sun exposure or high foot traffic. Ugly dead patches will never be a problem, ever again!

LOW MAINTENANCE

Synthetic grass takes the win for lower maintenance needs. Golf greens have to be kept short, and with traditional grass, this means regular trimming and mowing. Additionally, keeping weeds at bay is always a challenge with organic grass. Since synthetic turf is not an organic material, it will keep bugs away without the ongoing use of insecticides.

BETTER DRAINAGE

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