Synthetic Putting Greens at Home

[dkm978]

I happened upon a website that installs putting greens, bunkers, and tee boxes at your home. While I still have 3 more years of college, and this will be a bit of a ways away, I was wondering if anyone has any experience with these, and how much they would cost (approx). Or just share your opinion on these.

How great would it be to practice bunker shots in the back yard?

Southwest Green put a synthetic putting green in my backyard. Cost $2.5 - 3.0 K. I love it! Haven't been able to convince my wife to let me put in a sand bunker though

Shovels are only $14.99 at Home Depot. Bags of sand can't be much more.

Awesome. I had no idea that there were so many companies that did this type of thing. For what you get, I'd say that price is definitely worth it... ...I only need to graduate, get a job, and buy a house first!!

our neighbors put one in for $25k, but is has up to 50 foot putts and is shaped like a T. It's pretty good size and the quality is great. I'll put one in eventually.

Why? Did they put in a fence, too?
