Home Owners/Backyard Putting Greens
If you are purchasing products for your home/ backyard
putting green here are a few suggestions to order by:
(A) CUPS
Generally speaking there are 2 basics sizes
and 2 different composites when ordering cups for your green. Either a 4”
“Practice” green cup or 6” “Regulation” greens cup. Both practice green and
regulation greens cups measure 4.25” in diameter which meet USGA regulations. The
basic difference is the depth and height of each cup. Practice greens cups
are only 4” in height and have less depth because they only need to secure a
short (24” up to 30”) practice putting stick usually with a “retriever” base.
Regulation greens cups are 6” in height and slightly deeper since they are made
to hold a 7 foot to 8 foot flag stick with full size flag (Think windy open
areas as opposed to small enclosed areas).
The prices vary depending on size and the material used
in manufacturing:
P160
4” Plastic Practice Greens Cup $3.95 each.
P160AL
4” Aluminum Practice Greens Cup $12.50 each.
G505 6” Plastic
Regulation Greens Cup $5.40 each.
4” PRACTICE GREENS CUPS ARE USED MOST OFTEN FOR
BACKYARD PUTTING GREENS.
(B) PRACTICE RODS OR STICKS
Practice rods are usually
24” or 30” in height and come with an almost flat “retriever” base and “T” top.
The retriever base is slightly contoured on the bottom to fit firmly into any
cup. The “T” top fits easily between two fingers and allows you to just
pop the balls out of the cups after you have drained a putt. The “T” top
unscrews and allows a nylon “tube” practice flag to slip over the rod.
Practice flags measure approximately 4” x 6”. Flags and rods with bases
are sold separately. The flags come in just about every color and the rods
with base are usually white or yellow. Retriever bases are always white
and colored stripes can be added to any rod for an up charge.
Nylon flags can also be numbered but are sold only in
sets of 1-9.
P100-24 24” Putting
Stick With Retriever Base $15.65 each
P100-30 30” Putting
Stick With Retriever Base $19.90 each
P500- 4” x
6” Nylon Tube Style Flag $5.46 each

P100-30 30” PUTTING RODS WITH BASES AND P500 NYLON FLAGS
ARE USED MOST OFTEN FOR BACKYARD GREENS.
Another option is to use fixed head style practice green
rods with bases. These are either 24” or 30” practice rods with a firm fixed
head in a pennant flag design or fixed round head design with or without
engraved numbers 1-9. Both lengths come with ball retriever bases and the
numbered styles are sold in sets of 9 only.

(C) REGULATION FLAG STICKS
(Note*In most cases you will
not want these for your backyard putting green. However if you plan on creating
a chipping area you may want to chip too a regulation, full size flagstick and
flag.) Flag sticks found on golf courses are usually 7’, 7.5’ or 8’ in height,
are ½” to ¾” in diameter and are designed to accept a 13” x 19” nylon tube
style flag. The base of almost all regulation flag sticks comes with an aluminum
“ferrule” that fits all regulation cups. The popular practice of sanding greens
after aeration has lead to the development of ferrules that won’t “stick” in the
cups if sand finds its way to the meeting point of both ferrule and cup
surfaces. All of the following flag sticks will be non-stick by design.
The most common and least expensive flag stick is a 7’ x
½” fiberglass pole with a threaded acorn nut at the top that will accept a tube
style flag. The ferrule design has some slots in it that will allow sand to fall
through the cup and therefore won’t stick. The next size up is an 8’ x ½” flag
stick with the same ferrule design. Other common 7 and 8 foot flag sticks are
the tapered tournament style flag sticks that are ¾” thick at the mid way point
tapering to ½” at the top and bottom. The tapered tournament style was designed
to be a little more visible from the fairway and a little sturdier during high
winds.
G414 7’ x ½” Flags
Stick $14.91 each
G430 8’ x ½” Flag
Sticks $15.65 each
G400 7’ Tapered
Tournament Flag Stick $32.50 each
G405 8’ Tapered
Tournament Flag Stick $34.39 each
The other popular flag sticks available from Eagle One
is the Standard Golf family of sticks that incorporates their patented “Smart
Fit” ferrule. All Standard Golf flag sticks are 7.5’ in length and must be
used in conjunction with their “ribbed” ST2000 non stick cup. The “Smart Fit”
ferrule of the Standard Golf flag sticks have small notches cut in them on the
underside of the ferrule itself that fits securely in the ribs of the cup-
similar to the way the teeth of two sprockets join together. The combination of
the ribbed cup and notched ferrule create a non stick / interlocking situation
that works extremely well in high wind areas.
Standard Golf flagsticks are
available in regular 7.5’ x ½” or tapered tournament style 7.5’ x ¾”.
ST26100 7.5’ x ½’ Flag
Stick With Smart Fit Ferrule $15.90

Stick Plastic Cup $7.90 each

Stick Aluminum Cup $19.90 each
OTHER PRODUCTS THAT YOU MAY WANT TO OWN
(D) HOLE CUTTERS
If you have a
synthetic green you most likely will not need this tool since the hole
locations will not change. However if you do own a real grass / turf green
you should occasionally change the hole location giving relief
to overplayed areas. When changing hole locations start by removing all cups. Best for home use is a Standard Golf Magnum lever action, scalloped shell, ash
handled hole cutter. The scalloped shell works like a seriated edged knife. By
twisting the handle left then right while putting downward pressure on the unit
you will see the ejection lever rise as the shell cuts its way into your green. When the shell has cut deep enough (this cutter comes with a “depth gauge” that
forces you to stop cutting and insures a uniform depth of plug), slowly pull the
whole cutter up and out of the hole. Do not pull the ejection
lever at this point: the “plug” should be intact inside of the shell. Go to
where the old hole was and insert the complete shell with the plug inside and
when you have push it down to where the “depth gauge” hits the green surface
eject the plug using the handle on the side of the cutter. The plug should force
the shell up and out of the old hole. Tamp down the plug so that it is the exact
height of the green. You will notice a ring for a couple
of days where the old hole was this is normal.
ST28970 Scalloped
Shell Lever Action Hole Cutter With
Depth Gauge $189.90
(E) CUP SETTER
The USGA requires that a cup be set
exactly 1’ below the putting surface. A cup setter accepts the top of the
cup and then seats it at exactly the 1” depth. It also flattens down any
uneven areas around a newly cut hole.

Setter $30.35
(F) CUP PULLER
Single prong one piece easily pulls cups
up and out of holes.
ST33200 Cup
