Why Choose Athens Turf Pros

Building a high-performance putting green isn't just about laying down some green turf; it's an art and a science. Our team at Athens Turf Pros understands the nuances of ball roll, stimp speed, and custom contouring that truly elevate a putting surface. We'll work with you to design a green that challenges your skills and complements your landscape, whether your home is tucked away near the State Botanical Garden or closer to the bustle of Prince Avenue. You're getting a true golfer's green, built by experts.


Our Process

Creating your perfect putting green involves careful planning and execution. We ensure every detail, from the undulations to the cup placement, contributes to an authentic and enjoyable golfing experience.

  1. Consultation & Design: We discuss your skill level, desired features (bunkers, fringe), and aesthetic preferences.
  2. Site Preparation: Grading the area for proper contours and drainage, laying a stable sub-base.
  3. Base Installation: Applying and compacting layers of aggregate to create the green's shape and speed.
  4. Turf Laying: Precisely cutting and laying our specialized putting green turf.
  5. Seaming & Edging: Seamlessly joining turf sections and creating crisp, clean edges.
  6. Cup Installation: Strategically placing and installing professional-grade golf cups.
  7. Infill & Sand Dressing: Applying specific infill to achieve desired stimp speed and brushing for optimal playability.


Design Your Dream Golf Experience

Your backyard putting green should be as unique as your swing. We offer endless customization options, from multi-hole designs and varying contours to integrated chipping areas and sand traps. Whether you want a simple practice green or a complex short-game haven, we'll tailor every aspect to your preferences, making sure it perfectly fits your Athens outdoor space and golf aspirations.


What Makes a Great Putting Green Turf?

The secret to a fantastic putting green is in the turf itself. We use specialized, high-density artificial grass designed to mimic the consistent roll and speed of a professional course. This turf is built for resilience, UV resistance, and minimal maintenance, ensuring your green performs beautifully year after year, even after heavy play or Georgia's unpredictable weather near UGA.


Can I Install a Putting Green Anywhere?

The beauty of artificial putting greens is their versatility. They can be installed in almost any space, from compact urban backyards to expansive estates. Our experts will assess your property to determine the best location, factoring in size, sun exposure, and drainage, to create an optimal design that fits your unique landscape, whether you're in West Athens or Watkinsville.


Beyond Golf: Multi-Sport & Play Areas

While our putting greens are a golfer's paradise, the same high-quality turf and meticulous installation can be adapted for multi-sport courts or general recreation areas. Imagine a space for bocce ball, cornhole, or a safe, clean play area for kids, all on the same durable, low-maintenance surface. We can help you envision and create these versatile outdoor zones.


Maintaining Your Private Green

Maintaining your artificial putting green is incredibly simple. A quick sweep to remove leaves and debris, and occasional rinsing, is usually all it takes. No watering, no mowing, no fertilizing. You'll spend more time practicing your putt and less time on upkeep, ensuring your green is always tournament-ready and looking sharp for years of enjoyment in your Athens home.
