Golfer's Dream Backyard Renovation - My Home Putting Green
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 24 авг 2024
- In this video, Golf Podcast Co-Host Michael Fasano shares his backyard golf renovation project from start to finish. Most avid golfers will agree that having a home putting green or driving range right in your yard is a dream come true.
The project took 3.5 months from the planning to the final touches. Although MUCH cheaper than a pool, this project certainly wasn't cheap and the putting green still requires some minor maintenance including keeping it clean in the fall, covering it in the winter, and well … that’s pretty much it.
As for cost, depending on the material you use and the excavation required, backyard putting greens can vary dramatically in cost. But we're happy to report that for the size of the green Mike had installed, the total cost of the golf green portion of the project with labor was under $3,500! Tree excavation, plants/shrubs, and the stones were a majority of the overall project expense. So if you have the land clear for a green, it could fall right into an affordable budget!
Mike opted for the turf called Precision Putt from SYN LAWN and you can tell by the quality that it will last a LONG time. Now let’s see if it helps his short game….

If you could design your own dream golf backyard setup what would it look like?
My own 200 yard par 3
i would build a putting green, an outdoor covered area to hang out and watch movies off a nice projector. The projector would double as a hitting projector to play some rounds of golf via the Golf Simulator. Definitely fire pit, maybe a nice built in Jacuzzi, and a Halfcourt basketball area with caging around. Gotta have my basketball that is a must. #warriors #dubnation :)
@@naivegolfpro5152 Nice!!!!

augusta in my backyard duh
I'm planting 2 to 3 trees a year on my property and he's dropping 100 yr old trees to make space.....man I would kill to have those big beauties in my yard.
so lets be honest here bro. After watching this we all know your wife wanted to do up the back yard... And she just let you put in a small putting green.
I actually am doing some research on building a little pitch and putt in my yard. Going to do a grass green instead of turf though. Can’t wait 😎😎
I love the peek behind the curtains. Real life, children... so sweet. Bless ya.
Thanks dude, appreciate the love.
Awesome stuff Mike. My dream backyard is a big putting green with bunker, big outdoor patio and next grass/plants all around it. So basically what you have!
Thanks!
I’d be happy with just the putting green!!! Awesome!
That really is the dream backyard!
Love it man!
Tom Kilgannon indeed
G money fart what did your parents pay for yours?
Love your channel keep doing what you do gm golf
Looks awesome Mike!!!!!!! A dream back yard indeed!! I saw the comment below about a Golficity golf meet and greet outing......can't wait for that! I'm a Jersey guy so any help needed I'm all in! Congrats again on the backyard, tell Frank he is going to need a leaf blower soon too!
haha! Awesome! You're a true Golficity Army soldier Bryan! Thanks for following along all these years.
such a huge space and you put in a tiny green. wasted opportunity.
plus ... where's the inground pool or hottub at least
Jeff Thompson Good point, but I’m sure they had a budget. They do have a family to feed.
@@jamescatheyiii4097 if you're going to do it, do it right.
DanTuber I agree with you! He could have built an awesome putting green, pool, jacuzzi and all of the trimmings and maybe he wanted to but wifey vetoed it. So, one step at a time. If they take out another 15k home equity to build it then maybe their mortgage becomes unmanageable. So I don’t know their financial situation. I just know that we all love golf!
Ha, funny. Every single square foot of this particular (SynLawn) turf is pretty expensive. Believe it or not, I (Mike) actually went over budget to make it 30% bigger from the original design. And yes, feeding the family is most important :-)
Looks excellent. Awesome! You might be replanting some of those next year. If we have a bad winter. But that’s a good 40k spent.
Love that ending
That's an awesome backyard Michael..I hope you get lots of use out of it. So cool!
Mike W thanks!!
This is nuts, really impressive stuff Mike
Thanks! 👊🏼
Sick green that really is a golfers dream backyard
Noah Adamczyk thanks dude!
I love it you will get so much better with it
“supervising the guys”
*doesnt know what any of the materials are*
Looks good! I like how you re-incorporated the dug up rocks into the landscape.
Landscapers idea, and a ton of savings by leaving them!
This is your best video so far . Love it!
Thank you!
Beauty. I've got a treehouse to build and eventually a net and green for golfing.
Wow! Great backyard. I’d love to do something similar!
Great use of the space given the hill. Sure that was the driver of the positioning of the bunker and size of the green. Those downslope bunker shots have to be a monster. How much maintenance are you seeing maintaining everything going forward. Grab yourself some chipping mats and you got a green to chip into all over the yard.
Chipping mats are here! Not much maintenance, just covering with a tarp in the winter. You're right about the positioning and size.
Amazing set up and nice video. Next time I’m stuck home ... I will try this !!!
Dude that looks so good!!!
Thank you!
Congrats on your backyard!!!
HIGH 5! LOOKS GREAT!
Wow this is awesome Mike! Hopefully I am able to get something similar to this when I get older😀
That's a great job mate, well done. Looks awesome. Thank you for sharing.
That turned out awesome
You guy have got to play my back yard at Scantlin Green in Dunn NC. I have a three tee one green with 2 pins par 60 (18 holes) course that I built in the winter of 21 and laid sod on April 2nd. Totally playable and rolls 8 on the SM. I invite you to not only see my videos at Home Golf Course Volume 1/2/3/4/5, but you are TOTALLY welcome to visit, play the course, and do a vlog segment anytime you want. Oh, and PS, my wife is from Mt Holly near Ft Dix/McGuire. I definitely would love to meet you guys in person.
Sweet yard! It came together really nicely.
Congrats man! That’s amazing I’d be fine with a putting green so I can stop 3 putting 😬
Ahh yes, the dreaded 3 putt. Check this compact indoor putting mat out...it really helped us with 3 putts: ruclips.net/video/ko6c-u2m98Q/видео.html
A par 3 with lots of tee boxes at my different distances so I can practice my different shots
Looks awesome! Cool vid
You should set up a tournament with a bunch of RUclips golfers. Make it an annual event and maybe even try to raise money for charity
Mark Phan love it
Love that idea. We'll work on getting something together. Thanks!
A par 3 backyard !!!! thats an idea
Hey, Im in Jersey too. When we gonna hang and roll the rock? Ill bring the beers. lol. Looks awesome.
Next season we're going to organize a massive meet up/tourney for all of our local friends and followers. Stay tuned ...thanks for tuning in!
Golficity awesome stuff. Looking forward to it
The most lit tree cutting music in the world..wtf lol
Mike did what worked for him, his family and his budget. So leave your suggestion "what he should have done.." to yourself. MIKE YOU DID GREAT FOR YOUR FAMILY!!! Cheers guys.
That's so awesome! Inspirational stuff. Keep winning at life dudes!!
I love your podcast and vids. I've always wanted an indoor simulator to play when it's dark outside 😁
It's way to small. Anyone can buy that size and put it in the ground. A dream backyard is an entire par 3 or several holes like I have on a 6,000 sq ft green, bentgrass of course artificial doesn't cut it
Awesome!...
those were top notch arborists
That is DOPE!
Thanks Steve!
I have a real grass putting green 3x the size. They’re awesome, hope you are enjoying it. Real grass is a lot more maintenance!
Awesome. I’m jealous you have one 3x the size! But as you know, for every sq foot more the $$ starts adding up! Thanks for tuning in 🤙🏼
I didn't know edbassmaster likes golf.
psh unreal
if only i could have this in my backyard lol
The dream!
You should do golf trick shots in your backyard
Looks freakin awesome, but if I were gonna design a golf backyard, I would put a place I could pitch and chip from onto the green!! And I would have 3 holes on the green. I would get bored of just putting back and forth to 2 holes. IK the cost and the room you hav are limitations, and trust me yours is beautiful but fir me if im gonna do it im going all in!!!! Hahaha. Congrats and enjoy your awesome backyard
10S Coach thanks man!
I like what you did here Mike from Golficity. I do, however, have to agree with everyone on here saying that the project is small. I would have made the green bigger, made a little bit of fairway grass to practice chipping in, got a net and golf hitting mat to practice with. Im also not sure about the location of the bunker. You don't really see a bunker on a downhill slope like that; on the other hand, it could have been just the perception that it was downhill. Im just saying that if you plan on doing a project like this, make sure to tackle all facets of the game, not just the short game. But, for what you had to deal with, it is a great start.
My dream back yard is a 320 yard par 4 with a massive hourglass shape green. a 160 yard par 3. A screened in pool and patio that has a 120in projector and 2 50in TVs. Have to make sure that I get me a
My dream backyard is to have a dirt bike track so I can go and rip it up everyday
That green looks brutal I’d have them redo that whole thing. And also maybe make the green larger than 1 ft by 1 ft
Great job,enjoy ,must start saving for mine.
personally i would have swapped the size of the patio for the size of the green. But we all have wives to stop us dong stupid shit like that right? :) awesome job mate, looks great!
Cam Thurlow thanks!
Dream backyard? Bigger green!
I would make my backyard like TIGER WOODS but RORY McILROY is still my HERO 🦸♂️ and my favorite 🏌️ golfer
I have a patio with a roof. There are speakers and a tv under the roof. Then we have a hill with mulch and plants and stuff. There is a brick wall keeping the mulch in place. Then up the hill we have a play set and yard. We are looking to put a green in our probably not
Goddamn that is a beautiful backyard man! It almost makes me wanna buy a house... and earn more money...congrats!
Why blaspheme God when describing something beautiful he made? Repent and believe the gospel!
Super Cool backyard, keep up the good videos!
So what you did was have a massive patio and very nice landscaping installed with a putting-green-talking-point and a sandbox? It all looks fantastic but I'm not sure how much actual practice you'd get in when you have such a nice patio fire pit to sit around
Where is the driving cage and Skytrak launch monitor? I am adding one to my backyard putting green. Keep building a little at time.
Wow 3500 seems very reasonable. Cool!
Beautiful home and backyard btw. 👍
Awesomeness
Thank you Dwayne 👊🏼 - Mike
I already have a chipping green in my backyard but it was not done well so my dream would probably be redoing it
Love it!
What size is the green Michael? Have fun with all if it. Pls don’t fire your caddy. He can be trained
A. W. It’s about 30 x 18. And no way,
I’ll never fire my caddy. It’s a life sentence.
Thank you for the update Michael. Nice size and he’s a loyal caddy so please keep him.... lol. You guys are great. Continued success to you both forever and a day.
I don’t know how you guys don’t have hundreds of thousands of followers!! Quality content and the videos are awesome! Keep it up and you guys will get there one day
Really appreciate that Peter! Thanks so much for the comment and for following our journey! Much more to come.
Great vid soooo entertaining
A dang course
Looks great! Glad you made the choice to use SYNLawn!
I’m planning on doing something a 5 hole version; no sand pit
looks so good man!!
Thanks!
That’s so sick nice work
Mellow Fallis really appreciate that man. Thanks! - Mike
Mike all in what did this incredible job cost?
I bet that bunker gets very little golf use, huh...nice sand box for the kids though
nice deer in the back yard!!!!
How much square feet is the putting green? Doing one for our backyard and just getting ideas thanks for all you do love the channel!
sooooooooooooooo sick
Mike...How has the putting green held up? Still enjoying it?
i want to do something like this also, but that layout is so off-putting.
The bunker is so sloped and the greens so small and close all you have is a SUPER awkward downhill shot.
then if you plan to chip from the other side you have all those walls in the way and don't mishit it or you'll send it into the lounge area.
that huge lawn section you grew could have been incorporated into the design. frankly i think having the fire pit area moved out of the way for a bigger green would have been a gooder plan. All i see that being good for is 10 foot putts and fringe chips (which isn't nothing), and a 30 minute distraction for the kids.
To b honest it would have a patio with a fire pit and pool next to it then a path to a big putting green with a bunker and a bunch of plants with also a garden
sucks its not a flat putter surface kinda not worth it lol can't get in really putting work on a big breaking putt but it looks nice
what did the trees hav done to you, you can go to a golf course any time
My dream backyard includes 1 golf hole with multiple directional fairways and 18 different tees to the same green. Probably requires about 15 acres to pull off.
You seem to want what Randy at @FriedEggsGolf has. I don't think he has 18 tee boxes, but similar concept. Thanks for tuning in!
@@Golficity I've seen his "course" and love the idea. I'm thinking of a bit grander scale but the same concept.
Great project, looks amazing , I am having a built in late November, do you us a stiff brush on the green in winter & re sand also?
We all know 3500 was a deep discount. Unless he had the furniture already that could’ve easily been a thousand bucks. No pun intended, but I ain’t buying it! Love these guys and the channel though!
Thanks for the idea we are doing a remodel at our house and instead of a basketball hoop we are thinking about installing a putting green and also thank you for replying, and I have a question for you what do you do in golf when your nervous during a match
Good luck. Stay confident; remember, you have nothing to lose out there. Enjoy the game; that should be your first goal.
must be a typo in the description on the costs... looks great but tree removal, grading, and landscaping is no where close to $3500. Maybe 10x that would be my guess.
18 hole is my dream
Looks awesome Mike! I would do a Jersey meet-up. Great idea. 👍🏻 I just played Darlington last week.
Love the Jersey meet-up idea. Plenty followers in the area to make it happen. We'll see what can do!
Did you have to put weed barrier in the sand bunker?? What did you do to keep all the sand in place, ie how deep is the sand itself?? I m getting ready to do a putting grean in my yard. Fortunately not faci g as much work as you had !!! Lol . Afraid to ask how much $$$$ you spent, nor is it my business. Nice job !!!
Having an issue with weeds in the bunker now. Even with the barrier. It’s hard to piece the price. 80% of the cost was the tree removal, excavation and those paver stones for the patio. The green project wasn’t all too much in the grand total of things. Maybe only 2-3k.
Did you increase the size, thusfar? Thanks.
A par 3 or 4 in my backyard
Is that bunker usable? It's on a big down slope with not much room to land or stop your shot.
Will you be installing something similar (the green) in the new office?
very cool and i'd love to have it, but far from my dream golf backyard. See Dave Pelz.
burlymugg we all wish we can have Daves backyard! Thanks man.
If you look up Dak Prescott’s backyard, I want something like that!
Do you like the bunker? Or is it more of a pain to clean up 🤣 I’m making my green and curious if there is anything you’d do different
I just said to my wife last weekend I wish I can take it out - a pain to keep up
@@Golficity ok thank you 🙏🏻 so much you just saved me a lot of headaches and a few I told you’s…
@@GolfDog haha exactly
How many square feet is that putting green?
