Whether you are looking to create an entire indoor golf facility in Las Vegas or you are only wanting to get a personal putting area in your home’s basement so you can practice, artificial grass is the solution you are looking for. Keep reading to know more about artificial turf for indoor golf.
WHY ARTIFICIAL TURF FOR INDOORS?
An indoor putting green won’t just enhance the appearance of your area, but will also enable you to practice your golf game in any climate. Artificial grass is an ideal answer for golf simulators, short game putting areas, and a whole lot more. Synthetic grass for indoor golf is:
- Simple to maintain
- Cost-effective
- Very customizable
- Increases property value
HOW ACCURATE IS INDOOR GOLF?
This will greatly vary based on the quality of the grass used for your indoor golf area. Inexpensive products will cause the ball to roll weirdly, and unlevel surfaces will make putting tough. Bunker zones must be built with careful thought for indoor installations. You can read more details regarding our indoor putting greens here.
On the flip side of indoor golf (simulators), you can trust golf simulators to be very precise. The majority feature a distance accuracy of approximately 95% or better. A handful of golf simulators will allow you to play with a real ball, on the other hand, lower-cost simulators will require a proprietary practice ball. This practice ball does not have the same results as a real ball and golf hitting mat outdoors, so remember that.
IS SYNTHETIC GRASS PRICEY TO INSTALL?
It is tough to quote precisely how much an indoor golf surface will cost to install, but you can typically anticipate spending in the neighborhood of $15 and $30+ per sq ft of turf installed. The components that impact the price are:
- Base materials
- Dimensions
- Design
- Site access/prep
- Golf features

CAN SHORT GAME OR PUTTING COURSES BE INDOORS?
Definitely! The biggest limitation is the size of the area you wish to install a short game or putting course indoors. With these, you don’t have to be troubled by balls sailing into the ceiling due to the fact that there will just be small touches on the ball for short game practice. Golf entertainment is growing into a big market, so if you have the indoor space to provide putting courses, it can be extremely helpful to your property.
WHAT DOES INDOOR GRASS INSTALLATION INVOLVE?
Indoor synthetic turf installation can be pretty easy due to the fact that there’s no need for excavating or leveling the ground first. A normal indoor golf turf installation will require the following steps:
- The floor cleaned, and free of debris, and any cracks filled up and sealed
- Installation of materials used to make undulating surfaces like bunkers
- Install and secure a shock pad to make a soft and safe surface
- Lay the artificial turf and secure edges
