Any of you have had a synthetic green installed in your back yard? Who did it?

Is southwest still the best in the business

I have looked at it before. Buy your own carpet and put it down yourself

Is southwest located in Mississippi? Then yes they are. But they are not cheap.

Make a layout of what you want. Get Mexicans to pour slab. Get Mexicans to come back and lay carpet. Drink beer and watch.

I have a sprinkler system installed, but i still have to water the far side by hand 2 3 times a week due to my neighbors oak tree ground is compacted I need to start punching that side, but don't know how much that will help

Reviews I read said to make sure to not put excessive slope in, especially if you have it higher on the stimp.

I've thought about doing this in my back yard. There's a corner of our yard that never gets any use and it would be perfect for a small 12'x4' putting green. Don't feel like shelling out a ton of money but don't trust myself to build it right. Surely it's not that complicated with artificial turf.
