The Backyard Is Done - Ohhh Cybercowboy.....
When I moved into this house, I wanted...and got...a small yard. I knew I'd have a space to cookout, but it's not good for much else. AND I wanted zero maintenance. The pellet smoker and the grill go on the patio...so what to do, what to do? Heyyyyyyy....why not have a putting green!!!
I have a 25 year guarantee on the color, it's pet safe (including cleanup) and no mowing. WOOHOOOOOO!!!! They start by digging up 4" of topsoil: Next they fill with crushed granite for stability and drainage and compact it down: A layer of sand is spread over the granite, then the turf goes down, then green and black synthetic sand on top for the final fill: Putting whenever I want. |

That looks pretty damn nice
So in 2 or 3 years you have the company back in to alter the lay of the putting green? |

Why do you think I made this. It's the only way I can! The owner of the company was at the job site today and he actually offered up that all of his workers have valid green cards and have been with him for at least five years. I was impressed! |

The lack of a suitable water hazard is distressing.
Nice job otherwise. |
