Does a Brilliant8 synthetic green really play like a natural grass green?
The best ones certainly do. Try out some synthetic greens for yourself and realise how good they really are. You can watch the ‘Pros Know’ footage to see many of the world’s champion golfers, leading Tour pros and top coaches explain why they chose Southwest Greens for their personal practice or coaching. They clearly rate these synthetic surfaces very highly. These are all highly successful individuals and golf is their business and livelihood, so they are unlikely to accept an inferior surface simply as an economy measure. They have both the means and the motivation to have the real thing if they thought it would be any better. The fact is that the best synthetic greens can now match the look, feel and playability of the best natural greens, plus they have the added advantages of being resistant to wear, the elements, pitch marks and so on. In effect, the best synthetic greens are now even better than the real thing in many ways.
