WHAT IS A PUTTING GREEN USED FOR?
One of the most critical parts of your game as a golfer is putting. For most non-professional golfers, putting can represent up to fifty percent of shots. So putting is something most golfers choose to work on often, right?
Not so fast.
The majority of golfers will prefer to practice driving ranges and bypass putting entirely. Does this sound like you too?
Of course driving ranges are a good time, and watching those long, satisfying shots are great, but are your putts lacking that final element they need?
A top-quality putting green turf is made from low pile artificial grass that allows golf balls to roll true. It is slightly different from regular turf because it isn’t as thick as the artificial grass that is used on lawns, therefore, it’ll help you better your short game.
ARE INDOOR PUTTING GREENS WORTH IT?
Artificial indoor golf putting greens are made of synthetic fibers and can replace naturally growing grass since it is durable. Trying to maintain an organic grass putting green inside would be a nightmare, so artificial turf is what you need indoors.
An indoor putting green will not only update the look and feel of your Houston home but will, more importantly, let you practice your golf game in any kind of season or weather, and the benefits of installing an indoor putting green exceed the expense by a considerable amount.

The money saved by getting an indoor putting green is one of the biggest perks — you’ll save on time and money spent traveling, club memberships, and caddy fees.
