Backyard putting green

It seems like the love of golf is taking over the country. It used to be that only the rich were into the game of golf. They would have their exclusive clubs where they would play with each other and entertain and impress business partners. This is no longer the case. Of course there are still exclusive clubs that allow only members and their invited guests in, but there are also a great number of fine public golf courses that anyone can play.

My two older sisters and their husbands are really into golfing. They both are members of golf clubs and they also travel to many different courses throughout the country. We live in Minnesota where the golfing season is cut short by snow. For the past couple of years my sister and their husbands take a trip south to the first golf course they can find opened. This has gotten to be a fun adventure for them. They head in a different direction each year depending upon the amount of snow and warm temperatures in the neighboring states. Last year one of my brother-in-laws put in a backyard putting green. His short game givens him the most trouble so he thought if he could practice on a regular basis he would be able to improve his over all score. When my sister told me he was going to put in a backyard putting green I did not realize what a production this was going to be. He wanted it to be the same as the one green that gives him the most trouble at the course they belong to.

He asked for and received permission to take measurements of the green. He also had the golf pros at the club and one of the caddies help him figure out the slope of the green. He also learned the hole placement based on the different times of the year. I did not realize that they change the location of the hole on the greens. Once he had all of this information he started to build his backyard putting green. He built up the area so that it was the same height as the one at the club. He then planted the same grass seed that they use. He spoke to the ground keeper to find out what level they mow the green to. My sister was amazed that he would go through all this trouble. I was also because ordinarily he is not a person that is keen on details. By the time he was finished he had the exact replica of the seventh hole green as his backyard putting green. He is convinced that his golf game is going to improve greatly.
