Perfect Your Short Game – The Ultimate Guide to Indoor Putting Greens

Perfect Your Short Game – The Ultimate Guide to Indoor Putting Greens

Ask any golfer what separates a good round from a great one, and they’ll likely say the same thing: putting. It’s the most precise, personal part of the game, yet it’s often the hardest to master.

Between busy schedules, unpredictable weather, and limited practice time, most golfers rarely get enough putting practice in. That’s where indoor putting greens bring the course home, helping you refine your stroke, improve alignment, and build consistency year-round.

Whether you’re setting up in your basement, office, or garage, here’s everything you need to know about finding the perfect indoor putting green for your space and skill level.

Why Practice Putting at Home?

Putting makes up nearly half of all strokes in an average round, but it’s also the easiest skill to practice without heading to the course. An indoor putting green lets you focus on the fundamentals, speed, distance control, and accuracy, without worrying about weather or green conditions.

It’s also a great stress reliever. Even 10 minutes of putting practice a day can sharpen your touch and build muscle memory. And with today’s high-quality mats that mimic real turf, you don’t lose the “feel” of the game just because you’re indoors.

What to Look for in an Indoor Putting Green

When shopping for a putting green, the goal is to find one that feels and rolls like a natural course. Here’s what matters most:

  • Surface Quality: You want a smooth, consistent roll that simulates real grass speed.
  • Size and Shape: Match your available space, from office corners to full-length setups.
  • Number of Cups: Multiple cups give you more angles and variety.
  • Portability and Storage: Lightweight greens can be rolled up and stored when not in use.

Our Top Picks for Every Golfer

At Simply Golf Simulators, we carry a full range of putting greens designed for different needs, from compact office practice to full-on home setups.

1. For the Home Office Golfer – Office Fit Series

If you’ve ever caught yourself taking mini putts between emails, the Office Fit 68, and 16+ Putting Greens are perfect. Compact, durable, and incredibly smooth, they roll true and fit easily in smaller spaces. Each model includes one cup and is ideal for quick, focused practice sessions, the kind that add up over time.

2. For the Dedicated Home Golfer – The Augusta V2 Collection

The Augusta V2 4'x10' and 4'x12' Putting Greens are favorites among golfers who want a professional-grade feel at home. With two cups, you can practice multiple putt angles, while the high-quality turf ensures realistic roll speed and durability. The longer Augusta EX Pro V2 (4'x15') gives you room to work on lag putts and control from different distances, perfect for anyone building a basement golf setup.

3. For Challenging Practice – The Country Club & Competitor Series

If variety is your thing, the Country Club V2 series (available in 6'x10', 6'x12', and 6'x15' sizes) offers multiple cup placements that simulate on-course conditions. Similarly, the Competitor Pro V2 (3'x12') and Competitor Pro TW V2 (3'x12') feature up to six cups, ideal for perfecting alignment and aim under different scenarios.

4. For Long Putts and Precision – The Long Putt & Par Saver Greens

If you’re serious about distance control, the Long Putt V2 (6'x30') or (6'x60') gives you the space to master those tricky 20–40 footers. For a more permanent, pro-level setup, the Par Saver Putting Green offers premium construction, multiple cup configurations, and customizable layouts, ideal for advanced players or teaching professionals.

5. For Outdoor Flexibility – Commander Patio Series

Want the option to move your practice outdoors? The Commander Patio Series Putting & Chipping Greens (available in 2′x15′, 3′x15′, 4′x15′, and 6′x15′ sizes) are weather-resistant and designed for both putting and chipping drills. They’re perfect for golfers who want year-round versatility without sacrificing performance.

Setting Up Your Indoor Putting Green

You don’t need much space to get started; a hallway, spare room, or garage will do. Just make sure the surface beneath your putting green is flat to ensure a smooth roll. For longer models like the Original EX2 V2 (3’x15’) or Super G V2 (6’x15’), a dedicated area works best.

Add a putting mirror or laser alignment tool for extra feedback, and set up simple targets to make practice fun and structured. If you have a simulator setup, pairing it with a putting green makes your practice experience even more complete.

An indoor putting green is an investment in your confidence, your focus, and your game. Whether you’re working from home or building a full simulator room, the right putting surface turns idle minutes into meaningful practice.
