Austin – October 31, 2026 -- LawnPop has installed 4,800 square feet of Synthetic Grass Warehouse's TigerTurf True Putt at a residence in Austin, Texas, built to roll at 11.5 to 12 on the stimp.
True Putt specifications target PGA-level ball control
True Putt uses a field green slit-film polypropylene blade with a 1-inch pile height. Face weight is 35 ounces, and total weight is 62 ounces per square yard. A K29 triple-layered, non-expansive backing is specified for seam strength and stability. The product is manufactured with UV inhibitors, is non-toxic and lead-free.
Clients required approach-shot performance from 20 to 140 yards
The homeowners are country club members who wanted a green that accepts approach shots from 20 to 140 yards and lets the ball check up as it would on natural turf. LawnPop owner Angie Shepard said she recommended True Putt for the professional outcome it provides, so that it acts like a true green.
Poolside siting required more than 10 feet of backfill
The clients specified a location next to their pool. To reach the layout height, LawnPop brought in more than 10 feet of backfill and built a custom steel retaining wall.
Water restrictions drive Texas demand for synthetic greens
The source cites Texas weather swings from scorching summers to freezing winters as a constraint on natural grass. Homeowners are turning to synthetic surfaces for year-round playability with lower maintenance and water use.
