Discover why many professional golfers prefer to play on synthetic turf.


Champions like Hale Irwin, Vijay Singh, and Jim Furyk all use and endorse the Southwest Greens premium synthetic golf putting greens. These professionals all know that our artificial greens are the best on the market. Why do they love our greens? Here are just some of the reasons.


EXPERT QUALITY

Because of its high-quality design, artificial grass is a perfect turf for all areas of golf. Golfers are aware of the wear and tear that happens on a putting green or course. Organic grass is more susceptible to damage caused by golfing activities. Southwest Greens has mastered the art and science of artificial turf installation. We’ve designed and installed 6000+ golf greens across the globe as luxurious golf courses, backyard putting greens, and more.


REAL FEEL

While all of our golf greens mimic natural grass, one of our customer’s preferred turfs is Golden Bear. Golden Bear turf is designed in partnership with Nicklaus Design. This high-quality artificial turf rolls, bounces, and receives like a pro course. Shot after shot, Golden Bear gives you the best aim of any putting surface. The playability feels so real you would swear you’re using traditional grass.


LOOKS BETTER

There isn’t anything like enjoying a green, perfectly manicured lawn. With synthetic turf, you’ll have a stunning green with little to no effort all year long. You can select from a range of grass blade types, colors, and weights to get exactly what you want. Our team can help develop a truly personalized experience that meets your needs.


DURABLE

By investing in artificial turf, you instantly cut down on the amount of maintenance necessary to keep it looking great. Our turf maintains its durability use after use, year after year. It won’t fade from sunlight or compress with heavy foot traffic. You won’t have to mow or water when you invest in synthetic turf.


PEST-FREE

Even if you’re not responsible for maintaining your golf greens, you know weeds and pests will overtake large areas of natural grass. This not only looks bad, but it can also wreak havoc on your allergies. With artificial turf, you won’t have to worry about weeds, animals, or insects. Because they can’t eat it, animals and bugs won’t hang around and eat your grass.


WHAT THE PROS SAY

Don’t just take our word for it; look at what some of the top golf champions who have had Southwest Greens installed on their properties have to say.
