QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS
Q: Which club do you have
in hand when you put the ball in the hole ... make a Bogie,
Eagle, Birdie or Par?
A: If its your putter, then you need to practice your hitting.
Q: Why practice on
artificial turf instead of natural grass?
A: The cost of installation of a natural grass practice
green has high cost but its maintenance costs are even higher. To
maintain a natural grass practice green necessitates the purchase
of a high precision mower, weedkiller, disease treatments,
pesticides, powerful fertilizers and even more. You will have to
learn how to apply the necessary quantity of chemicals to
maintain your green in good health. You surely already heard
golfers say that they spent more time maintaining the practice
green than to practise on it. To install a natural grass green
can become drudgery whereas all you really wanted to do was to
improve your putting. Our practice greens are very accessible and
will meet your budget. Once installed, your practice greens by
Quatre Saisons will be virtually maintenance free. All you have
to do is remove dead leaves with a blower or a brush.
Q: Can I add or remove
contours as well as a border around my practice green?
A: Obviously, you can create the contours you wish with
the base material. Crushed stone is very easy to handle and makes
it possible to create the type of surface contour that you want.
The synthetic grass adheres directly to the base of crushed
stone.
