If you are trying to build a whole indoor golf facility in Tucson or you are just going to get a small putting area in your basement for practice, synthetic grass is the solution you are looking for. Read on to know more regarding synthetic grass for indoor golf.

 

WHY SYNTHETIC GRASS FOR INDOORS?

An indoor putting green won’t just enhance the appearance of your area, but will also let you work on your golf game in any season or weather. Artificial turf is a great answer for golf simulators, short game putting areas, and a whole lot more. Artificial grass for indoor golf is:

  • Effortless to maintain
  • Cost-effective
  • Very customizable
  • An increase to property value

HOW ACCURATE IS INDOOR GOLF?

This will largely vary based on the quality of the turf employed for your indoor golf area. Cheaper products will cause the ball to roll weirdly, and uneven surfaces will make putting difficult. Bunker sections must to be planned with careful thought for indoor installations. You can know more info regarding our indoor putting greens here.

On the opposite side of indoor golf (simulators), you can trust golf simulators to be quite precise. The majority feature a distance accuracy of approximately 95% or better. A handful of golf simulators will enable you to play with an actual ball, while cheaper simulators will need a specific practice ball. This practice ball will not have the same results as a real ball and golf hitting mat outdoors, so bear that in mind.

 

IS ARTIFICIAL TURF PRICEY TO INSTALL?

It is hard to estimate precisely how much an indoor golf surface will cost to install, but you can usually plan to spend between $15 and $30+ per sq ft of turf installed. Some components which impact the price are:

  • Base materials
  • Dimensions
  • Design
  • Site access/prep
  • Golf features

CAN SHORT GAME OR PUTTING COURSES BE INDOORS?

Definitely! The biggest constraint is the size of the area you want to install a short game or putting course indoors. With these, you won’t have to be troubled by balls getting hit into the ceiling since there will just be soft strokes on the ball for short game improvement. Golf entertainment is becoming a large market, so if you have the indoor area to install putting courses, it can be highly helpful to your property.

 

WHAT DOES INDOOR GRASS INSTALLATION INVOLVE?

Indoor artificial turf installation can be quite straightforward due to the fact that there is no need for excavating or leveling the ground first. A regular indoor golf grass installation will require the following steps:

  1. The surface cleaned, and free of debris, and any cracks filled up and sealed
  2. Installation of materials utilized to make uneven surfaces like bunkers
  3. Lay and secure a shock pad to make a soft and safe surface
  4. Place synthetic grass and fasten edges
