Indoor Putting Greens are available in many different sizes, and are mobile for the most part. The surface is comprised of three layers, a multi cellular extruded polystyrene base, a thin layer of specially formulated neoprene, and is covered with different putting surfaces. With the many sizes and shapes, there is sure to be a putting green for you.

Playability is another key aspect when designing a putting green. Greens with too many breaks and undulations will not allow for quality pin placements. Golfers do not like to have difficult short putts. A quality pin location will generally have three feet of flat surface surrounding the hole. A green that has too many undulations may not offer enough quality pin placements. This can hamper the health of the green as the same location gets used heavily.

You cannot maintain a putting green surface with a standard rotary mower. Putting Greens must be cut and rolled at a height around 3/16", using a reel type blade that "pinches" the grass off, rather than chopping it sideways as a rotary mower does. To have a green, you must purchase a high-quality reel type "greens quality" mower. This is no small investment, but if properly maintained, this type of mower should last for years. There are push, gas and electric mowers available and recently, push units have become available for under $300. See the Gear Page for more information about mowers and vendors.
