Austin Backyard Putting Greens

Grass!365 Certified Experts design and install the very best artificial golf greens available.

Having a backyard putting green is about as good as it gets.

And with a Grass!365 golf green, you’re getting the best in the game, whether you shoot one-under, or one hundred.

Grass!365 has been installing putting greens across the world–yes, the world–for over 25 years, and in Central Texas since 2010.

That’s a lot of happy golfers.

Owner Alex Kroviak is an avid golfer himself, and designs and executes every golf green we install, from sketching on paper to test-putting with his trusted flatstick. This means a seasoned golfer will be on site throughout your build to make sure every putt is true, and every break is fair.

But this ain’t your granddad’s golf green.

No, this isn’t a rock hard, green carpet installed out back. Our sand-filled system is designed to hold shots from up to 180 yards away. That means when you grab a wedge and want to flip shots at your green, you’ll get a true reaction, with check and spin.

It starts with a properly designed base, then a 5mm impact pad, about 9-lbs of sand per square foot, and then finally, a healthy dose of weighted rolling to get true putts and checking wedges.

It’s a putting green system other companies don’t install, because they can’t install. It takes years of experience to install, a love for golf to perfect, and a dedicated crew to deliver.

Check, check and check.

Backyard Golf Greens

The term you often hear is “backyard putting green.” While many people search for this when thinking about a new golf amenity, Grass!365 has been specializing in installing Golf Greens made from artificial grass for over 25 years. These greens can hold shots from over 180 yards away while providing a putting experience akin to top-quality natural grass greens. We’ve had the pleasure of creating some fantastic golf shots and holes across Texas.

The secret to making synthetic grass golf greens play like their natural counterparts lies in two main aspects. First, the size of the green must match the intended shot; the average PGA Tour green is about 6,500 square feet. You can’t expect even the best players to hit a 1,500 square foot green from 150 yards away. We tailor our greens to fit not just your budget and property size but also the shots you want to play.

Secondly, the undulations of the green are crucial. You can’t have a green that slopes away from where the shot comes from; it should slope slightly from front to back. This helps break the momentum of the golf ball with both the surface texture and the angle of the green.

When all these factors are carefully considered in the design phase, synthetic turf putting greens transform into golf greens that not only look but also play like natural grass. Grass!365 are experts in this field—let us show you our greens and take some shots together.

Praise for Backyard Putting Greens Austin

Alex and his team are nothing short of awesome. He worked closely with me to get the right design and delivered. From ensuring drainage was accounted for, to the green and chipping area layout, Alex has great attention to detail and his installation crew is absolutely the best. Very happy customer.

Michael M., Avid Golfer

Alex and his team were phenomenal. We did turf in a large portion of our backyard as part of a pool install/backyard reno project. Alex was amazing at working with the other crew leaders to figure out timings, and the turf, putting green and hitting mats he installed all look amazing. He went above and beyond and was easily the best vendor we worked with in the entire process. I couldn’t recommend Grass!365 of Austin more.

Erik E., Golf Green Customer

Alex and his team were the best, and I am very happy with my putting green and artificial turf installation. I researched many competitors but I am glad I went with Grass 365 and Alex’s team. I was impressed with the price, value, and professional ability to provide exactly what I was looking for in the project. The installation of the turf was done was done quickly and seamlessly. It was a great value, and I am happy with the quality of the turf as well as the layout and design of the turf and green. I would definitely recommend them.

With 50 acres to your name, a 20-minute trek to the nearest gas station, and a growing crew of in-laws and grandkids, you face a dilemma: How do you keep everyone entertained?

We constructed a 3,600+ square foot golf project, including a 5-foot wide lawn area around the court. Tee boxes at distances of 25, 35, and 45 yards provide a great variety of shots. With 6 strategically placed cups around the green, all types of challenges await. Naturally, we installed our golf green surface that can handle and hold shots from all across the property, ideal for those boys’ trips where golf and betting are on the agenda.

Shaded spaces great for putting greens.

Nestled between the back porch and the pool house, this putting green not only enhances entertainment but also solves a previous problem with muddy maintenance. The natural grass couldn’t thrive here due to the shade and heavy use. Much like many of our projects in Austin, this customer first looked into synthetic grass to cut down on upkeep. Our backyard putting greens are resilient, handling high traffic and diverse activities while still providing excellent golfing conditions. Now, this area has become one of the most cherished spots on the property, all thanks to the low-maintenance, stunning backyard putting green.

Backyard Putting Green and Lawn

This backyard putting green has transformed the area into a stunning focal point in this Austin home. Beyond simply enjoying the aesthetic of our artificial grass installation, the placement of the grill is both practical and strategic. One of the initial considerations in our design process for backyard golf greens is locating the grilling area. We enjoy placing chipping tees right by the grill, allowing you to flip 60-degree wedges while flipping steaks. Backyard putting greens not only beautify your property but also enrich your golf skills and lifestyle.
