A backyard putting green is a roll-out or tiled turf surface with one or more cups, sized for putting practice or a casual game. Some are a single mat, others come with putters and balls, and a few turn into a two-team game.

The six options below run from a 3 by 9 foot kidney-shaped green to a 12 foot game mat. Sizes, materials and what is in the box come from each listing page, and playing claims are the makers’ own. We have not used these products ourselves.
