We offer&nbsp;our putting green surfaces in 12' or 15' widths. Lengths can be as short as 12' or as long as 300'.&nbsp; We also sell 2 styles of premium fringe which also doubles as a top-quality replacement for real grass in situations where synthetic turf is desired.</font></div> <div>Unlike our on-line competitors, we provide you with the most detailed information on each of the synthetic products that we sell so you can know exactly what you are purchasing.&nbsp; Use our information when shopping the different on-line stores.&nbsp; We sell direct from the mills, no middle men to mark up the products.&nbsp; Most turf orders will take about 7-10 business days to arrive at your location after placing your order.&nbsp; </div> <div><font size="4"></font>&nbsp;</div> <div><font color="#ff0080"><font size="4"><strong>NOTE:</strong>&nbsp; <font size="3">We get a lot of questions about</font> </font><font size="3">chipping on to the green surfaces, and which surface material to purchase.&nbsp; We advise these customers that size of the green is more important than the style of putting green surface.&nbsp; All of the surfaces will hold a chip shot, but not if your green is 12' x 12' and you are chipping from 150 yds out.&nbsp; To hold a chip shot from 60 yds out, you should have at least 600 sqft of putting green surface to handle the ball's roll out (unless you have a perfect back-spin on the ball).&nbsp; Smaller greens are great for putting practice and Bump &amp; Runs.</font></font></div> <div><br /><font size="4">&nbsp; <u><strong><font color="#0000ff">COMPARISON - Nylon Turf vs. Polypropylene Turf</font></strong></u></font></div> <div align="center"><font size="4"></font>&nbsp;</div> <div align="left"><strong><font size="4"><img height="85" alt="Nylon Green" src="https://store.nexternal.com/tjb/images/nylonturf27.gif" width="125" align="left" border="0" /></font></strong></div> <div align="left"><strong><font size="5">NYLON TURF</font></strong></div> <div><font size="4"></font>&nbsp;</div> <div><font size="4"></font>&nbsp;</div> <div><font size="4"></font>&nbsp;</div> <div><font size="4"></font>&nbsp;</div> <div><font size="4">&#8226; </font><font size="3">Nylon &amp; Nylon sand-filled synthetic turfs have "memory." The fibers are heat-set during the manufacturing process at 230 degrees and will resist becoming matted down by springing back to their original upright position for many years of enjoyable play.</font></div> <div>&#8226;&nbsp;Nylon synthetic turfs are much denser than our polypropylene sand-filled turfs. That is why our nylon products require zero to minimal amounts of in-fill.&nbsp; You can add in-fill materials if you wish to speed up the playing speed of the green if so desired.</div> <div>&#8226; Nylon is also a much stronger fiber than polypropylene and will resist fading and wear in all weather conditions.&nbsp; This is why the warrantee period is always longer for nylon.</div> <div>&#8226; Our sand filled nylon products have been specifically designed as excellent all-purpose turfs. They give you the best of both worlds - excellent shot receiving and superb putting performance. In addition, by adding a small amount of in-fill to your putting green, you can increase the ball speed of your green.</div> <div>&#8226; Nylon synthetic turf does not require maintenance after it is installed, unless you add sand or other in-fill during the installation.</div> <div>&#8226; Whether you choose an in-filled or non in-filled nylon turf, the surface of your green can be cleared of debris easily, by either blowing or sweeping off the surface.</div> <div><br /><strong><font size="4"><img height="85" alt="Poly Turf" src="https://store.nexternal.com/tjb/images/poly%20turf.gif" width="125" align="left" border="0" /></font></strong></div> <div><strong><font size="5">POLYPROPYLENE TURF</font></strong></div> <div><font size="4"></font>&nbsp;</div> <div><font size="4"></font>&nbsp;</div> <div><font size="4"></font>&nbsp;</div> <div><font size="4"></font>&nbsp;</div> <div><font size="4">&#8226; </font><font size="3">Polypropylene is a form of plastic.&nbsp;Most polypropylene turfs require some in-fill to perform well.</font></div> <div>&#8226; There are a couple of reasons why you need in-fill in a polypropylene turf. The most important reason is because the fibers cannot stand upright on their own. In-fill is also required to help prevent the fibers from becoming matted down. Adding the wrong in-fill to a putting green will equate to periodic maintenance, despite claims to the contrary.</div> <div>&#8226; Heavily sand-filled greens&nbsp;may become hard over time, and will require a little more maintenance to provide good performance. These sand-filled turf products require 2-12 pounds of sand per sq. ft. (depending upon fiber length), and must be brushed and re-filled with sand if the sand-fill becomes compacted or washed away.</div> <div>To help eliminate the compaction issuses, try to use a <strong><u>uniform sized material</u></strong> for your in-filling applications.&nbsp; It will cost a little more, but it will not compact.</div> <div>&#8226; With the right sand-fill, polypropylene provides an excellent surface for receiving long approach shots. (The sand-fill helps disperse the energy of a ball when hit into a green from any significant distance.)&nbsp; The longer the fiber (IE: &gt;2&#8221;), the more sand in-fill and the better holding capability the green will have for long chip shots (over&nbsp;150 yds).</div> <div>&#8226; Putting on a sand-filled turf does have a drawback however. You&nbsp;might experience a "grainy" effect when you putt on a sand-filled turf. This means that the ball will roll faster with the grain than against the grain. This effect will occur with most polypropylene products that you choose reguardless of fiber length.&nbsp; </div> <div>&nbsp;</div> <div><strong><font color="#800040" size="4">* The exception to these rules is our new "<font color="#408000" size="5">Super Poly</font>" which is omni-directional!

Either one will work in any part of the country.&nbsp; </li> <li><strong>Deluxe Turf</strong> has a softer feel than the <strong>Premium Turf</strong>, but the <strong>Premium Turf</strong> has more of a cushiony feel to it than the <strong>Deluxe Turf</strong>.&nbsp; </li> <li>Our&nbsp;synthetic turf's have water control perferations in their backings to allow 100 gallons of water per square yard per hour to drain into the turfs substrate below.&nbsp; </li> <li>Both products are safe for use with children and pets.&nbsp;

Both of our turfs have urethane secondary backings, so that any brand of exterior carpet glue can be used to make your seams with a seaming cloth as a binder material.&nbsp; (Just make sure to check the glue's label to verify that it is for urethane backed carpets &amp; exterior use)</div> <div>&nbsp;</div> <div>Areas of the country with prohibitive water restrictions, will find our synthetic turfs as a great alternative to dead, dry grass, crushed stone,&nbsp;or bare&nbsp;dirt.&nbsp; Perfect for adding a different texture and color to Xeriscaping&nbsp;designs.&nbsp; </div> <div>&nbsp;</div> <div>With the new health concerns over recycled rubber,&nbsp;the thick nylon "spring set" thatch layer allows our two turfs to be installed with little to no&nbsp;rubber crumb and still provide a comfortable surface.</div> <div>&nbsp;</div> <div><strong><font color="#800000">See each product's description for more detailed information &amp;
