Southwest Greens Backyard Putting Greens Put The Environment On Par With Your Game - By: Bill Nardiello

Let’s be honest... no one ever invested in Orange County backyard putting greens in order to “go green.” It’s all about elevating your game to be sure, but if an added benefit of installing artificial grass was that it helped the environment wouldn’t you be on board? Of course you would, and with our Orange County golf greens that’s exactly the case. Chances are you aren’t aware of how environmentally unsound maintaining natural grass can be. This fact alone makes our synthetic turf home putting greens such a sound investment. Combine it with what our outdoor and indoor putting greens can do for your game and the positive returns are off the charts.

How, you may ask, is simply maintaining a yard of natural grass detrimental to the environment? Well, it turns out that not only is yard work not fun, it’s also a drag on both the atmosphere and our natural resources. Do you use a gas lawnmover to mow your yard? Many of us still do, and using one for just an hour is the equivalent of gassing up your car and going on a 100 mile trip. As if that weren’t enough, every time you mow you release something called hydrocarbons into the air. Once in the atmosphere these hydrocarbons reinvent themselves as smog. Of all the factors contributing to an increase in smog, chances are you never considered mowing to be one of them. Still it happens every time you cut your grass.

Water shortages are a big deal in California, and part of being environmentally conscious is conserving where you can. Studies have shown that one of the most wasteful areas in any household is water use is in maintaining natural grass lawns. In fact the average family uses approximately 25 gallons per square foot of lawn! Are you wasteful in this area? If so, just think of the money you’ll save with a backyard putting green that requires zero water or maintenance, ever. That means more money in your pocket, less yard work, and of course your very own private practice facility.

Perhaps you’ve never considered the merits of “going green,” but doing so via our putting greens requires nothing more of you outside of the initial installation. In fact the only fingers you’ll lift are the ones holding your putter! Enjoy the game you love and watch your game improve exponentially with the convenience of a Southwest Green. And be a friend to the environment in the process!
