What material is the Nicklaus Design® Pro System made from?
All of our turf systems are based on our research and development. The Nicklaus Design® Pro System in particular has been developed and refined with input from numerous champion golfers. It is therefore made from whatever the pros think works best – currently a 3,5mm polypropylene infilled turf. The pros generally tend to vote with their feet. Sometimes they buy an inferior green but many end up upgrading to our Pro System sooner or later. Our job is to build the best possible greens, regardless of the material. If the pros favour one particular system or surface then our ‘Nicklaus Design® Pro System’ must be doing something right. If we ever manage to develop a synthetic green, and the Pros favour it, then we’ll go with it and roll it out for all other customers too. But right now, the Nicklaus Design® Pro System feels hard to beat because it has achieved an incredible level of realism already.
