Professional greens keepers as well as golf enthusiasts maintaining backyard putting
greens use a variety of grass types--depending on climate, sunlight conditions and soil
conditions. Putting greens require special preparation for growth and maintenance, to
ensure proper propagation and upkeep.
Each of our VIVATURF golf green begin with a multi-layer gravel sub-base of superior
stability, vertical and horizontal drainage and concludes with a sophisticated integral top
dressing for accurate ball response. The only thing different is rather than hybrid grass
seed, we engineer a scientifically designed fiber arrangement to mimic the thickness,
color and texture of country club quality bent grass.
This highly advanced; award winning simulated bent grass golf system is the only
synthetic putting greens surface that has a G rating for authentic performance by the Golf
Association. This super synthetic process on steroids will hold a shot from any distance. If
you can hit it, it will hold it.
Tour Play Pro golf systems are currently being used in country clubs, golf schools and
academies as well as by PGA and LPGA professionals all over the world. Now they are
available to the lucky few avid golfers who refuse to settle for something less than the best
in the privacy of their home.
VIAVTURF artificial grass putting greens exclusive, selective fibers are the highest level
UV stabilized fiber attainable, category 4. This means, not only will Tour Play Premium
golf systems outlook, outperform, and outplay any other mass produced turf, they will also
last longer in the harshest environments like heat, freeze and thaw, discoloration,
degradation.
Putting greens are not all of the same quality. The finest-quality greens are well-kept so
that a ball will roll smoothly over the closely mowed grass. Excess water can be removed
from synthetic turf using a machine called a water hog. Golfers describe a green as fast if
a light stroke on the ball makes it roll a long distance; conversely, on a slow green a
stronger stroke is necessary to roll the ball the same distance.
The exact speed of a green can be determined with a stamp meter. By collecting sample
measurements, golf courses can be compared in terms of average green speed. It is,
however, illegal by the Rules of Golf to test the speed of a green while playing by rolling a
ball on it, or by feeling or rubbing the green.
