Marking the locationAfter I had the property graded (this was a new lawn), I shoveled together an earth berm and spray painted the location of the golf green. Although this was a new lawn you obviously could build a golf green on an existing lawn by simply removing sod.

|
Spreading the baseI had some limestone gravel delivered and I spread it around to the size of the golf green. This created a nice surface for the concrete.
|
|
Putting up the formsI staked the 2x4 forms around the gravel base in preparation for the concrete. I did not create a level form, I actually pitched the forms in two different directions to create a slight slope on the finished golf green.

Marking the holesAlthough difficult to see in this picture I actually sunk PVC "sleeves" insto the gravel and earth to mark the location of the golf green cups. After the concrete is poured I will simply insert a regulation cup into the sleeve. By the way these were actually purchased sleeves for this exact purpose as the inside dimension of standard PVC piping is not the right size for a cup.
