"Ryan Plute is the owner/operator of Village Land and Lighting, LLC. Ryan genuinely puts his whole heart into every job he does. He is an educated engineer and all-purpose problem solver. Most recently Ryan removed two of our 8’-tall X 7’-wide and deeply rooted sweet vibernum hedge plants which had been terminally damaged by a stroke victim’s SUV. Ryan replaced them with two 30-gallon sweet vibernums. Even though this was a relatively small project Ryan made time to visit and view the job-site before formulating an estimate when all other vendors only wanted pictures. Ryan immediately made certain that public utilities were notified and that they had marked their underground lines before he began digging. He coordinated and supervised the nursery crew during the installation of the new shrubs and old vegetation removal, and Ryan meticulously cleaned the area upon completion. The entire job was completed within a week. Ryan: is pleasant, competent, thorough, and efficient. We highly rec"

Absolutely. If you're passionate about golf and want to practice anytime without leaving home, installing a backyard putting green is worth it. While it's an investment, consider the cost of joining a golf club—elite clubs charge up to $500,000.
Plus, annual membership fees average $6,000, and that's before additional costs like per-round fees, caddies, carts, and other extras that can add $1,000 or more per year. Over time, having your own putting green could save you money and provide endless convenience.
A good size for a backyard putting green is around 500 square feet—it provides ample space for practice without overwhelming your yard. If space is limited, even a 100-square-foot green can be fun and functional. If you have room to spare, a larger green up to 2,000 square feet lets you add areas for long putts or mini-golf features. Ultimately, the best size is one that fits your space and meets your practice needs.
Artificial turf supports chipping because its longer, durable fibers are engineered to deliver precise chip and pitch shots. This surface allows dedicated chipping mats to effectively simulate a natural putting green, making your practice sessions both efficient and reliable. The design replicates true green conditions, boosting shot accuracy and confidence, and ensuring your backyard practice area performs as intended.
Putting greens are made from either natural grass or synthetic materials like nylon and polypropylene. Natural greens use specialized bentgrass for a smooth surface, while synthetic greens feature durable fibers designed to mimic real grass. Installation costs are about $18 to $25 per square foot for synthetic turf and $1 to $2 per square foot for natural sod.
It takes between one day and one week to install a backyard putting green. Professional teams complete a compact and straightforward installation in one day, whereas larger projects featuring design elements like hills and slopes require up to a week. The installation duration depends on the project’s overall complexity and scale, ensuring every area is expertly prepared and implemented for high-quality performance.
An outdoor putting green lasts 5 to 15 years when it is maintained with discipline and care. Regular cleaning, mowing, and proactive upkeep extend its durability, and professional maintenance further ensures that the green remains in peak condition. This longevity enhances your outdoor recreational space, providing a reliable setting that elevates your game over many seasons.
