Artificial Grass For Golf

For the greens we us a very tight curled (textured) grass which is then filled with sand to give a very realistic finish and feel to the green. The speed (stamp rating) of the green can be changed by introducing more sand to the synthetic turf. We would also always recommend a shock pad underneath the artificial grass on a putting green. The shock pad will prevent the ball from bouncing to far when chipped in from a distance. The shock pad helps to replicate natural playing conditions, without it the ball will hit the green and bounce much further than it would on a natural grass green. This shock pad can be a pre-farbriacted pad or it can be a poured rubber in-situ pad.

The particular grass used on fairways is really down to personal preference and the specific playing situation. If the golf course is very heavily used then we would recommend a hard wearing sports turf, similar to those used on a commercial football pitch. This grass could also be reserved for areas of the fairway with most play. On other areas, for examples a tree line separating to holes, we can then use a very natural looking landscaping grass with a brown thatch root zone to replicate natural grass. As there will only be a small amount of play on this fake grass, if any, it is fine to use one of our landscaping grasses.

The height of the fairway artificial grass products and the rough artificial grass products depends entirely on the design of the course and the wishes if the golf course superintendent. We can manufacture our various models of grass to any required length so we can create a totally unique and bespoke golf course when required.
