PREMIUM PRO TURF Synthetic Nylon Putting Greens
Three surface sizes — 4' x 15', 5' x 15', and 12' x 15' — built from 100% nylon turf fiber on foldable rubber or urethane backing. The 12' x 15' version ships with three precut cup holes finished at the factory, so no cutting is required on site. All three work indoors or outdoors and fold flat for storage or transport.

Each green uses 100% nylon turf fiber and a foldable construction — what changes is the footprint, the backing material, and whether cup holes are included. Here's how the three products compare on the specs that matter for installation planning.
| Model | Dimensions | Backing | Precut Holes | Best For |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 4' x 15' Practice Putting Green | 4 ft wide × 15 ft long | Urethane | None | Indoor simulator rooms, hardwood or finished floors, narrow corridor setups |
| 5' x 15' Practice Putting Green | 5 ft wide × 15 ft long | Rubber / Synthetic Rubber | None | Garages, concrete floors, covered patios, setups needing extra lateral width |
| 12' x 15' Three-Hole Putting Green | 12 ft wide × 15 ft long | Rubber | 3 (factory precut) | Backyard and patio installations, multi-hole practice, permanent outdoor setups |
If you're installing indoors on a finished floor, the urethane-backed 4' x 15' is the right fit. If you're going outdoors or on concrete — and especially if you want multiple practice holes — step up to the rubber-backed 5' x 15' or the 12' x 15' three-hole green.
Which Size and Format Fits Your Setup
The first decision is footprint. The 4' x 15' and 5' x 15' strips are lane-style greens — long enough to practice putts from 10 to 15 feet, narrow enough to fit along a garage wall, down a basement hallway, or beside an existing net simulator bay. The width difference between them matters depending on how much lateral movement you want: a 4-foot-wide strip keeps you honest on a straight line, while the 5-foot-wide version gives you a bit more room to set up from different angles or practice breaking putts that drift toward the edge.
The 12' x 15' is a different product category entirely. At 180 square feet with three precut holes already finished at the factory, it functions as a backyard or patio putting green rather than a practice strip. The three cup positions let you practice putts of different lengths without repositioning the surface, and the precut holes mean the green is ready to use the moment it's unrolled — no cutting tools, no hole-finishing work required.
Backing type is worth factoring in by installation surface. The 4' x 15' uses a urethane backing, which is suited for hardwood floors and finished surfaces in home simulators or indoor practice rooms. The 5' x 15' and 12' x 15' use a rubber backing — equally stable on concrete, tile, or exterior pavers, and appropriate for outdoor setups that will see temperature variation and moisture exposure. Neither version requires adhesive for temporary installation.
Real Setups These Greens Are Built For
The 4' x 15' urethane-backed strip is the right call for a home golf simulator room where the putting green lives beside the hitting area on a hardwood or laminate floor. At 4 feet wide, it fits alongside a standard impact screen bay without taking over the room. The urethane base holds the surface flat without creeping on finished flooring, and the foldable construction means you can roll it up if the space doubles as a workout room or play area when no one is putting.
The 5' x 15' rubber-backed strip suits garages, concrete basement floors, and covered patios — surfaces where a rubber base outperforms urethane in terms of grip and moisture resistance. The extra foot of width over the 4' version is noticeable when you're practicing putts from varied setup positions or using an alignment rod to work on start line. It also works as a longer practice corridor in a net cage setup where there's room alongside the hitting position.
The 12' x 15' three-hole green is built for a backyard or patio installation where you want a permanent-feeling putting surface rather than a strip mat you're repositioning between sessions. The three precut holes span the 15-foot length of the surface, giving you short-, mid-, and longer-putt practice without moving your feet. This configuration suits a homeowner who wants a dedicated putting area that looks like a real green and handles year-round outdoor exposure — not a mat that gets rolled out occasionally and tucked back in a corner.
Keeping Your Green Rolling True Over Time
All three surfaces use nylon turf fiber, which holds up better under UV exposure and repeated foot traffic than polyethylene alternatives. That said, the life of any synthetic putting surface is directly affected by how it's used and stored. If your 4' x 15' or 5' x 15' strip lives indoors full-time, there's almost no maintenance required beyond occasional brushing to keep the fibers upright and uniform. Outdoors, UV exposure and standing water are the two main factors that accelerate wear — nylon fiber handles both better than PE, but leaving any synthetic surface sitting in pooled water degrades the backing faster than the fiber itself.
For the 12' x 15' outdoor green, drainage matters from the start. The rubber backing allows water to drain through the turf layer when the surface is installed on a permeable base — gravel, decomposed granite, or a properly graded sub-base. Installing it flat on a non-draining surface like solid concrete without slope will cause water to sit on top and under the green. If your patio is concrete, a slight grade of at least 1–2% is enough to let water clear. The foldable construction allows you to pull the green up if needed for heavy-rain seasons in climates where standing water would otherwise be a persistent issue.
- Brush the fibers regularly — a stiff-bristle brush across the grain keeps fibers upright and maintains consistent ball roll. Matted fibers slow the surface and create inconsistent putt response.
- Store strip greens rolled, not folded — the foldable form factor is for transport, not long-term storage. Rolling preserves the flat surface profile over time.
- Keep metal spike traffic off the surface — these greens are rated for normal foot traffic, not cleat use. Soft spikes are fine; metal spikes will damage the nylon fiber over time.
- For the outdoor 12' x 15' green — a leaf blower clears debris faster than a rake and won't snag the fiber the way rigid tines can.
Frequently Asked Questions
Do any of these greens accept real cup inserts, or are the holes just cuts in the turf?
The 12' x 15' version ships with three precut holes finished at the factory. The product listing specifies three precut holes; cup insert compatibility isn't detailed in the available specs, so if you're planning to install regulation-depth cups with a physical liner, confirm with Premium Pro Turf directly before ordering. The 4' x 15' and 5' x 15' strip greens do not include precut holes — they're practice putting strips, not multi-hole installations.
Will the urethane backing on the 4' x 15' damage my hardwood floors?
Urethane backing is specifically suited for finished indoor floors — it grips without adhesive and doesn't leave marks or residue on hardwood, laminate, or tile. It's a harder-surface variant of the rubber backing used on the other two greens. That said, if your floor has a wax finish or is particularly soft wood, it's worth checking a small area before leaving the green in place for an extended period.
How does ball roll compare between the strip greens and the 12' x 15'?
All three surfaces use 100% nylon fiber with a 0.5-inch pile height (confirmed on the 12' x 15'; the strip greens use the same fiber construction). Nylon fiber holds its shape underfoot and resists matting better than polyethylene, which means ball roll stays consistent over time rather than slowing as the fibers compress. The 12' x 15' has enough room to practice putts that break laterally; the strip greens are better suited for straight-line distance control work.
Can the 12' x 15' green be left outside year-round?
The nylon turf fiber and rubber backing are built to handle outdoor exposure — UV, temperature variation, and moisture — better than PE alternatives. High-quality synthetic turf can last 15–20 years with proper care. The practical caveat: standing water under the green accelerates backing wear, so make sure the surface beneath has some slope or drainage. If you're in a climate with harsh winters, rolling the green up and storing it indoors during the off-season will extend its useful life.
Can I cut the 4' x 15' or 5' x 15' strip to a custom length?
The product specs don't address cutting — these are finished goods, not roll-goods sold by the yard. Cutting a backed synthetic turf surface without the right tools and edge-finishing will cause the backing to fray and the fiber edge to unravel. If you need a custom-length surface, contact Premium Pro Turf to ask whether trimming is supported for these SKUs.
What's the right surface to install these greens on outdoors?
For the rubber-backed strip greens, concrete, pavers, compacted gravel, and existing exterior turf all work — the rubber base grips without adhesive on any firm, flat surface. For the 12' x 15' three-hole green, a prepared sub-base of compacted decomposed granite or a graded gravel layer gives the best long-term result: it allows drainage, stays level, and prevents the backing from sitting in pooled water after rain. Installing directly on native soil without base prep works short-term but creates drainage and leveling issues over time.
