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

 

NOT EVERY ARTIFICIAL TURF IS BUILT EQUAL

If you’re seeking for realistic artificial turf for a industrial or residential golf green design, you can’t pick up a roll of turf from the domestic big box shop. Your experience will be nothing like what you experience at your home course.

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

 

HOW TO PICK A FIRST-CLASS TURF

One of the first qualities to watch for when investigating artificial turf for your golf green projects in Huntsville should be the play properties of authentic golf courses.


Let’s start with landing on the green.

When you land a chip shot on the green, you expect it to be acquired by the grass properly, bounce accordingly, and roll clearly, hopefully, in the direction of the cup. That final part is at your discretion, though. Regrettably, many artificial grass products can’t deliver on that, failing to supply the similar bounce as true greens do. Our Golden Bear product line is particularly and mechanically intended to be sensible in this respect and supply 20-25% more ball retention than other foremost synthetic turf products.

 

WHY GOLDEN BEAR GRASS

Putting is questionably where the appropriate roll, aim, and authentic golf ball action turns even more critical. How can you potentially enhance putt consistency if you’re putting on a low grade turf that does not have natural action?

Whether you struggle with cut-throughs, spin, shoving, putter release, or even recovering from missed putts, natural golf ball action is important. Practicing your routine and aim on a synthetic golf green that isn’t as adequate as the greens at the course might be more harmful to your game than helpful. If you want to better your putting, you need to find a realistic artificial grass intended for golf.
