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

 

NOT ALL ARTIFICIAL GRASS IS BUILT EQUAL

If you’re seeking for realistic synthetic grass for a business or residential golf green plan, you can’t pick up a roll of grass from the local big box shop. Your experience will be nothing like what you receive at your home course.

When it comes to artificial grass, you want a result whereupon a chip shot will land, bounce, roll, stop, and reciprocate as naturally to an actual golf green. And to amplify your assets, you want a putt to break and roll reasonably from club face to the cup. It’s not being unreasonable, professional player or not.

 

HOW TO CHOOSE A EXCELLENT TURF

One of the first characteristics to watch for when exploring synthetic grass for your golf green projects in Vancouver should be the play characteristics 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 received by the grass correctly, bounce adequately, and roll naturally, hopefully, in the direction of the cup. That last part is up to you, though. Unfortunately, many synthetic grass products can’t deliver on that, failing to provide the same bounce as true greens do. Our Golden Bear line of business is especially and mechanically intended to be realistic in this context and provide 20-25% more ball retention than other foremost synthetic grass products.

 

WHY GOLDEN BEAR GRASS

Putting is debatable where the suitable roll, aim, and authentic golf ball action becomes even more important. How can you potentially improve putt consistency if you’re putting on a poor quality turf that does not have realistic action?

Whether you struggle with cut-throughs, spin, shoving, putter release, or even improving from missed putts, sensible golf ball action is of importance. Rehearsing your routine and aim on a artificial golf green that isn’t up to the same pattern as the greens at the course may be more detrimental to your game than useful. If you want to better your putting, you have to discover a life-like artificial grass intended for golf.
