How To Line Up Your 4th Putt! ProGreen Synthetic Grass Putting Green System™ Offers Maintenance-Free, True Look and Feel Putting Surface

DENVER, CO, May 12, 2001 - How do you line up your 4th putt? You don't! Instead, you really should be working on your short game! Consistent, accurate approach shots and great putting are paramount to lower scores. Statistics abound about the impact that a "killer" short game has on overall game. Additionally, if you are lining up your fourth putt you are never going to be relaxed off the next tee box or hitting your long irons. Nothing beats PRACTICE, PRACTICE, PRACTICE to improve the old short game!

ProGreen International, Inc. has the answer. ProGreen Synthetic Grass has 13 years of research and development experience and has perfected the synthetic putting green. ProGreen Synthetic Grass putting greens are not only durable and maintenance-free, but they play as a natural green would. Gary Kayser of Denver had ProGreen install a small green in his backyard. Kayser says, "They installed my green in one day and this practice green allows me to chip onto it from around 30 yards out. It also allows me to practice my putting in the comfort of my own backyard - daily! I can't tell you how much this alone has improved my game. My short game is right on ALL of the time and it is a very rare occasion when I three putt; in fact my average is below two! Talk about relaxed! Nothing relaxes me more than being confident in my short game and being dead, solid perfect on the green!"

In addition to the look and play of natural grass, ProGreen is designed to provide a true ball bounce and roll. ProGreen Top Dressing™ is round, green-sand granules specially sized and shaped for maximum performance. "The Top Dressing assures uniform and consistent ball roll, superior ball-shot absorption and plays a major factor in the maintenance-free environment," says Steve Walker, ProGreen president. "Because of our granules' 'round' shape prevents bonding, the green's surface avoids crusting which is what 'angular' sand naturally tends to do. To avaid crusting - or hardening - of the surface requires periodic brushing or sweeping.

Synthetic putting greens can be designed for any size, shape or contour in both residential and commercial settings. Other than occasionally blowing leaves or debris off the green there is no maintenance and no need to cover the surface. ProGreen turf employs a resilient UV resistant polypropylene fiber that can withstand the effects of rain, ice, and intense sun. Additionally, all ProGreen Synthetic Grass comes with a limited 8-year warranty. To contact ProGreen, call (888) 440-PUTT.
