Designing For A Golf Course Construction In The Backyard

By John Green


Golf courses are types of grounds which are being made specifically for golf game. The grounds usually are composed of several holes. Each of the hole is consist of a teeing ground, green, fairway, and some hazards such as the rough. The green contains a flag stick or a pin and as well as hole cup. The standard number of holes in golf game is 18.

The course are usually following the original landscapes but some grounds are being modified. There are some cases where in the new courses are found in the lands which are less optimal. If you really have the obsession with golf, you can try designing you own backyard golf course construction by following these simple steps.

You must think on the amount of space and time that you will be needing. Designing the course can be very difficult. You surely have a lot of ideas in your mind and if you ever you have some doubts, you can always look for some references such as the internet. And once you already have made a decision and have done it, maintain it, and if basing on the complexity, it would be hard for you to tear it down.

Next is to consider on purchasing the needed tools and equipment. Putter and pitching or sand wedge are two equipment that are primarily used for the game. These two wedge clubs only are going to be used for backyard golf. You will also be needing multiple balls. Grass mowers are needed as well so that the maintenance of grass can be done easily, making it shorter and nicer.

Decide on what type of ground that you are going to use for the course. If you are owning a very large land and you are willing to spend time on maintaining it, having the par four or par five is suggested. But for average sized backyards, par three is fine. Make sure that the land to be designed has a flat surface and has lesser bumps, meaning, not having any slopes or hills.

Start in mowing the fairways. A good suggestion to this is to do the mowing in an alternate way for each row so that the mowed areas are neat and will look like the striped style, thus, you can achieve the real fairways. Doing the mowing may usually take three up to four days depending on the backyard sizes.

Start to mow the green. Before you start to mow the green, make sure that the blades of mower are set to the lowest setting so that the grass will be cut short neatly. Make sure that the green is placed on a surface of the background having the flattest land area. A good recommendation is do the mowing of green every 2 days.

Create 2 to 3 hazards or sand traps. You can purchase these materials from the nearby hardware stores in your local area. These sand traps will be placed on fairways along the sides and on greens behind, at the front, or along the side.

Then lastly is maintaining the course. At the real courses, crews are being hired in order to maintain their courses. And since there is no need for you to do the mowing every day, you may just spare about fifteen to twenty minutes of your time to check it.
