I started installing artificial turf in 2004 when I purchased a franchise from a leading putting green company. I learned all of the best techniques for installing artificial grass and synthetic putting greens. What I was not taught was how to avoid maintenance for the customer. When I found a better way to install a golf green, I made the tough decision to become an independent installer. In 2009, I starting using a paneling system for the base of the putting greens made by a company called Tour Links. I still build the golf green base using compacted stone, but I now also use the latest version of the Tour Links panel called, Ultrabase. I have learned that this base system is necessary to avoid all of the maintenance issues that plague the industry. The benefits of using the Ultrabase panels are: they provide a consistent putting surface for the life of the green, they answer the issues associated with expansion and contraction that can occur with artificial turf as the panels have a barb system built on top that holds the turf in place, the floating putting cup assembly adjusts to any movement that may occur with the turf, and most importantly, moisture is swept away from the turf surface through the drainage holes that are built into the interlocking panels.
