Putting Green FAQ
A visual, icon‑driven FAQ covering stimp speeds, infill, base construction, breaks, contours, and maintenance — designed for golfers who want a true‑roll backyard green.
What stimp speed do your putting greens roll at?
Our putting greens roll between 10–12 stimp depending on infill amount and brushing direction. This matches premium private‑club speeds.
Do putting greens use infill?
Yes — unlike landscape and pet turf, putting greens require specialized infill to control:
- Ball roll speed
- Surface firmness
- Consistency across the green
This diagram shows the full system: putting turf → infill → compacted stone base → shaping layer → subgrade. Breaks and contours are created during the shaping stage.
Can you build breaks and contours?
Yes — we shape the base using a compacted stone layer to create:
- Subtle left‑to‑right breaks
- Tiered slopes
- Valleys and ridges
- Multi‑hole practice zones
How long does a putting green last?
Our putting greens last 15–20+ years with proper brushing and infill maintenance.
Can you add fringe and rough?
Absolutely — we install:
- Fringe turf for chipping
- Rough turf for flop‑shot practice
- Fairway turf for approach shots
