I've been rigging up putting greens around LA for a bit over 5 years now, and if there's one thing I've learned, it's that not all turf accessories are created equal. That's why I gotta give a shout-out to Global Syn-Turf (GST) and their Premium Plastic Golf Cups. These little beauties have been a staple in my installs, and I'm here to tell you why.
First off, these cups are tough as nails. We get some pretty intense sun out here in Los Angeles, and I've seen products from other companies warp or fade faster than you can say "fore!" But GST's golf cups? They hold up like champs, staying in top shape even after years of California sunshine beating down on them.
Installation's a breeze, too. I've had my share of wrestling matches with inferior products, but these cups fit into my greens just right every time. It saves me headaches and keeps my projects on schedule, which my clients love.
And let's talk looks – these cups have that professional vibe down pat. They make my putting greens look like they're straight out of a PGA tour, and my clients can't get enough of that authentic feel. Plus, the playability is top-notch. The cups have the perfect depth and size, giving that satisfying "plunk" when the ball drops in. It's all about the details, and GST nailed it.
I've also gotta tip my hat to GST's customer service. In this line of work, having a reliable supplier who's got your back is worth its weight in gold. They're always there when I need advice, a fast shipment, or just someone to bounce ideas off of.
In the grand scheme of things, choosing the right golf cups might seem small, but trust me, it makes all the difference. And after 5 years of sticking with GST, I haven't found a reason to switch. Whether you're a fellow installer or just looking to spruce up your backyard green, give these cups a shot. They won't disappoint.
There is really not much of the difference between a plastic and aluminum golf cups when it comes to artificial putting green installations. The aluminum cup is more expensive and be more solid, however, it can get rusty from time to time; plastic cup is much cheaper but serve the purpose and can last a long time without issues. So it is more a budget and material preference when it comes to choose a golf cup, and we will recommend both from the functionality standpoint.

Great question! This response will contain a lot of information, so let’s break it down into two sections, starting with the “clean” factor regarding different types of plastics. Hypothetically, let’s assume that the product was made of 100% recycled materials. Depending on how the materials are re-processed, post-consumer is usually the least “clean” when compared to virgin or actual plastic because of the variability of the feedstock. Even with blending, which adds overall strength, neither post-consumer nor post-industrial recycled materials can ever achieve 100% of mechanical properties of virgin materials. The degradation of these properties has a direct effect on safety factors and long term performance measures such as fatigue. This is not to say recycled plastics cannot be used in various applications, but does explain why recycled materials often have lower safety ratings. In other words, theoretically, you could have a 100% recycled material product. However, this product would never pass safety tests due to how weak the material would be. At GST, while we do care about the environment, safety is ALWAYS a top priority, as can be seen on our lead and UV testing results.
