Negative Aspects Of An Artificial Home Putting Green

By Jeffery M. Bell


An artificial putting green is synthetic grass installed in your office or home for golf practice sessions or for home beautification. It is cost effective and very low in upkeep. Although it has its own advantages, there are also some limitations to take into consideration before buying an artificial home putting green. Listed here are the disadvantages of an artificial putting green which could help you decide whether to get one or not:

Unnatural

There may be a variety of choices with regards to color-from light to a darker shade of green, but still, imitating the natural color of true grass might be difficult to copy in the exact manner. Besides color selection, there's a variety of choices when it comes to texture. But the natural feel and natural appeal of a true grass can't be imitated one hundred percent.

Rise in temperature

One factor to consider in terms of the disadvantages of an artificial putting green in your home is the difficulty to adapt from playing on artificial green to a real golf course. Synthetic greens may imitate the feel of a real golf course, but in reality they are not the same. The surface of a real golf course may not be as smooth or as even as compared to the artificial putting green.

Rise in temperature

Since it is synthetic, it tends to get hotter on mid days than in natural grass. That is one of the disadvantages of an artificial putting green. We all know that plants do emit oxygen which is good for our health, and they also cool down the temperature of the surroundings on mid days. But in the case of an artificial putting green, the heat absorbing materials of a synthetic green makes it difficult and uncomfortable to play during hot days.

Harmful to the environment

One of the disadvantages of an artificial home putting green is that the material cannot be recycled. Regardless whether your artificial putting green is manufactured by a well known company, still, it will break down after years of continued usage. When it is time for you to replace it, there are issues of recycling and where to throw the old artificial putting green.

In spite of all the benefits of an artificial home putting green, consider also the other side of the coin. There might be some disadvantages of an artificial putting green that you might want to think about before buying a product that's relatively expensive compared to real grass.

In order to make an informed decision, weigh both the advantages and disadvantages. If you decide that the advantages outweigh the disadvantages, knowing the disadvantages can help set expectations.
