How to Make a Golf Hole

By Bobby Ingram

Whether it's for a mini-golf course or a putting green on which to practice your short game, making your own golf hole can be a fun way to take your golf game home with you, and putting a green around it ensures you get all the use you want out of it.

Instructions

Difficulty: Moderate

Step 1

Shape the area around your desired hole location with the shovel and dirt rake, if needed.

Step 2

Dig a hole about 4 inches deep and 5 inches around.

Step 3

Place the PVC pipe into the hole and hit it down until it is only an inch above ground level.

Step 4

Pack the dirt tightly around your pipe to hold it in place.

Step 5

Hit the pipe with the mallet until it is just below ground level.

Step 6

Reseed the area for your green and let it grow.

Step 7

Set the reel mower to the desired height (about 1/8 of an inch) and mow the area of your green.
