Why should I choose to install STI’s artificial greens instead of real grass greens?
Installing a natural grass green is very expensive however not nearly as expensive ( in money, time and frustration) as maintaining a real green. Not only do you have to fertilize, mow and water on a regular basis but you have to have specific quantities of chemicals and water, correctly applied to maintain your green properly. You need special equipment – like that used at your golf club. Most golfers who have installed real putting greens spend more time maintaining the green than they do enjoying their green.
What is it that sets STI’s nylon putting surface and fringe apart from the rest?
One of the worlds best known teaching professionals, David Leadbetter, teaches on an STI nylon putting green at his teaching facility in Orlando Florida. We believe that if an STI putting green is good enough for David Leadbetter to teach on – then surely we all can benefit from practicing on an STI putting green.
First and foremost we have a quality surface. Our nylon putting surface is manufactured exclusively for STI. No other putting green company has the STI nylon putting surface. We work closely with the manufacturing plant to ensure consistency – there are quality control checkpoints at the factory and at our headquarters as well. Our green color is the most realistic and our turf putts true. Our putting surface has memory. An STI nylon putting green achieves a stimp meter reading of 9-11 which is comparable to many putting greens on your favorite course.
STI offers matching fringe for our nylon putting greens which enhances the beauty of your green. It also allows you to practice your chip shots regularly. You can pitch into a nylon green however your nylon putting green is primarily designed for chipping and putting. If you desire to hit into your green from 30-40 yards or more out we recommend that you consider our sand filled application.
STI greens are custom designed to your specifications. Every green is constructed with contours and undulations that are realistic and the difficulty of the green is tailored to the experience level or criteria required by our customer. STI can design, create and install any size putting green anywhere in the world with our own team of installers. We also have a Distributor network throughout the United States, Canada and Europe so that your green can be installed by an STI Distributor near you.
