Cottonwood Heights · 550 sq ft
550 sq ft canyon-side putting green in Cottonwood Heights, Utah
A representative 550 sq ft build for Cottonwood Heights — what it involves, how long it takes, and what it runs to.

What people are solving for
A green that putts true, rather than short turf stapled to flat ground. The break has to be shaped into the base, because it cannot be added afterwards.
How it goes in
The contour is planned and walked before anything is compacted, then the base is excavated and shaped to that contour rather than to level. Putting surface is seamed and secured, regulation cups and sleeves are set, a longer fringe collar goes in for chipping and contrast, and silica infill is levelled to tune the roll.
