When most people think of artificial turf, they picture sports fields or golf courses. But today’s turf products have come a long way, giving homeowners new ways to create beautiful, functional outdoor spaces without the constant upkeep that natural grass requires.
That’s exactly what Indy Putting Greens has been helping homeowners do across Central Indiana for the past seven years.
Founded by Russ Greene, Indy Putting Greens specializes in artificial turf installations that look natural, perform beautifully, and help homeowners spend less time maintaining their yards and more time enjoying them.
From Research to Reality
Before launching Indy Putting Greens, Russ spent time researching trends that were beginning to make their way into the Midwest. One trend stood out: growing interest in artificial grass.
Homeowners were looking for ways to reduce maintenance, conserve water, and create outdoor spaces that stayed attractive year-round. At the same time, advancements in turf technology were making artificial grass more realistic than ever before.
Russ saw an opportunity to bring those benefits to Central Indiana homeowners.
Today, Indy Putting Greens serves customers throughout the Indianapolis area, helping them transform everything from small backyard spaces to large residential landscapes.
More Than Just Putting Greens
Despite the name, putting greens are only one part of the business.
Indy Putting Greens installs a variety of turf solutions, including:
- Residential lawns
- Pet-friendly spaces
- Playground turf
- Athletic training areas
- Backyard putting greens
- High-traffic outdoor living spaces
Whether a homeowner wants a lush-looking lawn without the mowing or a durable surface that can stand up to pets and kids, the team works to find the right solution for each property.
Why Homeowners Are Making the Switch
For many homeowners, maintaining a beautiful yard requires a significant investment of time, money, and effort.
Mowing. Watering. Fertilizing. Weed control. Aeration.
Artificial turf helps eliminate many of those ongoing tasks while maintaining a consistently attractive appearance throughout the year.
While the initial investment can be higher than traditional landscaping, many homeowners find that reduced maintenance costs and long-term durability make it a worthwhile consideration.
For busy families, frequent travelers, pet owners, and anyone looking to simplify lawn care, artificial turf can offer a practical alternative to natural grass.
Expertise Makes the Difference
One of the things Russ emphasizes most is that artificial turf installation is a specialized skill.
Creating a finished product that looks natural requires more than simply laying turf on the ground. Proper preparation, drainage, product selection, and installation techniques all play a role in the final result.
That’s why Indy Putting Greens focuses heavily on training, craftsmanship, and staying current with advancements in turf technology.
Their goal isn’t simply to install turf—it’s to create an outdoor space that blends naturally with the surrounding environment.
The Best Compliment? “Is That Real?”
For Russ and his team, success comes when people can’t tell the difference.
A great installation doesn’t draw attention because it looks artificial. It draws attention because it looks so natural that visitors have to take a second look.
That commitment to realism influences everything from turf selection to color matching, helping homeowners avoid common mistakes and achieve a finished look that feels right at home in the Midwest.
See the Difference for Yourself
Choosing the right turf is easier when you can see it firsthand.
That’s why Indy Putting Greens maintains a showroom on Indianapolis’ west side, where homeowners can explore different turf options, test a putting green, and get a better understanding of what will work best for their property.
Seeing and feeling the products in person often gives homeowners the confidence they need to move forward with a project.
