I've started my 8x12 putting green in my basement. Here are a couple pictures but it's made so I can expand it. It has a few different breaks in it but also a few straight putts. Have a lot to do still but will keep the updates.

Very cool. Wish you lived a lot closer. I can actually putt now......physically I mean :)

Dang, you're making my setup look bush league.

I hope it turns out good, so far I'm happy!!

Neb, what material did you use? I'm still debating what I want to use. Right now birdieball is at the top.
 
Looking forward to following the progress of this awesome project

Nice!!! That's gonna be so fun putting on a green with varying break from different angles.

That's what I wanted. I didn't want to have the same putt over and over. There is a couple putts I made straight to work on my line putting but most putts break some.
 
Curious. What sort of a green are you going to go with on it?

Looks really good so far!

Thanks!

I'm still trying to figure that out. I have a request in for a few samples. I'm leaning towards BirdieBall but haven't completely decided yet.
 
Pretty awesome. After seeing yours I made it a point to finish mine this afternoon. Now to make time this week to roll some putts. While mine isn't as wide as I was able to add a small bit of break.

That's great! Glad I could give you an idea or so for your green. I'd love to see the finished project. I'm hoping to get mine done in the next couple weeks. Practice makes perfect (almost) and it's the best thing you can do at home in the winter

Oh it had been sitting there half finished since Feb. I added sides today to keep the balls from rolling off and cut out the cups.

I've just got a birdie ball on concrete. Maybe it is bush league... :alien:

Not at all anything to help you practice. How do you like the BirdieBall?
 
very nice
 
That looks great. just a question for you guys with the putting greens, do you find with practising on them that you find the line and it gets a bit repetitive?

It might get repetitive but my feeling is Im still practicing my stroke. The more consistent I can get and more I feel I can start the ball on line the more putts I will make.

It's good enough to keep me occupied in the winter and come out not putting like absolute garbage. It helps me work on a consistent stroke, which is good.
