The Golfer’s Guide to Artificial Grass

Do you dream of perfecting your swing from home without the hassle of travelling to and from the golf course? Perhaps you think that a home putting green is a luxury out of your reach, but it’s actually more affordable, maintainable and easy-to-achieve than you may realise.

In this handy golfer’s guide to artificial grass, we’ll take a look at the benefits of a home putting green, the different types of grass types available, and how to go about installing and maintaining a home green for future enjoyment.

What are the benefits?

Whether you’re practising your putting before a spot of breakfast, or taking a quick break from work with some chipping exercises, a putting green at home gives you the flexibility, accessibility and convenience of reaching the top of your game from the comfort of home. And thanks to artificial grass, you can enjoy all the benefits of home putting greens without the time-consuming upkeep. 

So, what are the key advantages of an artificial grass putting green for your garden? 

• Looks and feels like the real thing: Colour, texture, pile height – every aspect of Easigrass’ artificial grass has been crafted to look, feel and perform like the real thing.
• No mud, mess or mowing: The beauty of artificial grass is that its exquisite quality can be enjoyed with minimal maintenance. That means no mud, no mess and no mowing, so you can enjoy a pristine putting green with very little effort. There are, however, a few additional things you can do to keep your artificial grass looking its best long into the future, which will be covered later.
• Convenience: A home putting green grants you the freedom to practice your swing whenever you want. Getting in the car and travelling to and from the golf course can be time-consuming, and could mean you don’t get as much practise in as you’d like. That’s why bringing a dedicated putting green to your own property is the convenient choice, giving you more time to hone your skills without having to uproot your day.
• Tailored to you: Here at Easigrass, we create bespoke home putting greens to suit any size or shape of garden, always making sure to cater to the practical needs and preferences of every client. This way, you can enjoy a putting green that suits your skill level, size of garden and budget.
• Family fun: Summertime is family time. A home putting green can be the perfect sunny weather activity that the family can enjoy together. Simply set up a BBQ nearby and you’ve got the perfect summer afternoon.

How to maintain your golf grass

A big pull of artificial grass is that its durability and incorporated technology means it requires little upkeep – giving you more time to focus on perfecting your swing. 

However, a little goes a long way, and it’s still wise to get a regular maintenance routine in place to keep the grass looking good and performing perfectly, all year round.

• You’re very unlikely to find weeds on artificial golf greens, due to their innovative design, and any that do pop up can be easily plucked out. 
• You may also wish to give the grass an occasional sweep to get rid of any fallen debris or leaves, particularly in autumn time. 
• Artificial grass self-cleans in the rain, but a periodic and gentle hose down in drier spells can also keep it looking fresh and clean. 
• As well as your own efforts, it’s also wise to get an annual maintenance check once per year. A professional artificial grass company, such as Easigrass, can do it for you. 

Here at Easigrass, we provide dedicated artificial grass maintenance on a schedule that suits you. Because we know our products inside out, we understand how to keep them performing at their very best. We’ll ensure your grass is at the top of its game – so that you can be, too.
