Golf is a game that rewards patience and consistent practice—but hitting the links isn’t always convenient and often means time away from family. The good news? Lake residents can hone those short game skills without ever leaving home. Clubhouse Turf can transform an unused space into a premium practice green… right in your backyard.
They’re already doing it in the Lake area, and customers are loving the results.
As an exclusive partner of Celebrity Greens, Clubhouse Turf uses proprietary products to craft tour-quality golf greens in the comfort of private outdoor spaces. Embracing Celebrity Greens’ mission of 'redefining private golf,' Clubhouse Turf proudly serves the Lake community, along with Columbia, Springfield, and St. Louis. Among more than 60 Celebrity Greens dealers nationwide, Clubhouse Turf was honored with both Best Project of the Year and Best Installer of the Year awards in 2023.

In 2019, Tom Roof started Clubhouse Turf after working as an architect and partner at TXR Architects + Constructors. With over 30 years of experience navigating the challenging terrain of the Lake area, he leads the Clubhouse Turf team in creating custom designs and installations.
And these aren’t just tiny putting greens. Clubhouse Turf recreates realistic situations that golfers may encounter on a professional golf course, including sand bunkers, various types of grass, and different levels of elevation. The installations are so nuanced that Clubhouse Turf can control the speed of a green, depending on the needs of the customer.
While some may think that playing on a home, synthetic green pales in comparison to real grass, the best of the best in the golf world would disagree. These premium greens are carefully crafted to emulate all conditions of a professionally maintained course and respond like the real deal.
With customers like U.S. Open Champion Gary Woodland and other golf professionals like John Rahm, Michael Murrah, Max Homa, Justin Thomas, Mark O’Meara, and other big names such as baseball legend Roger Clemens, George Brett and Fox News’ Anchor Brett Baier, the name Celebrity Greens couldn’t be more accurate.
Clubhouse Turf's Josh Byrd was awarded the Installer of the Year at the 2024 Celebrity Greens Dealer Meeting.

Celebrity Greens also supports Folds of Honor, a charity dedicated to helping Gold Star families, by donating custom backyard greens or artificial grass. One such family, who made the ultimate sacrifice, has a young son with dreams of becoming a professional golfer. To help nurture his passion, Celebrity Greens installed a personalized putting green in his backyard.
Clubhouse Turf also has solutions for families who seek synthetic grass for other reasons.
“We do anything and everything synthetic,” Roof said. Clubhouse Turf brings their A-game every time, whether customers are wanting:
- Sport Fields
- Pet Turf
- Playgrounds
- Lawn Turf around pools, under trees, or between pavers
“The only thing customers have to do is blow or brush it off. The biggest factor in the life of the turf is UV fading. But here in Missouri, it could easily last 15-20 years with routine maintenance,” Roof explained.
When it comes to battling soggy parts of the yard, synthetic turf makes a big difference. Clubhouse Turf built seven baseball fields in Eureka, just outside of St. Louis. While the fields are actually located in a flood zone and might normally have significant drainage issues, the park maintenance team commented how easy it is to maintain the fields now.
If there is a spot in your yard where grass refuses to grow, or if you are looking for an easily maintained yard, Clubhouse Turf is ready to transform your space into a green oasis. Give them a call at 573-733-6218 or check out their Facebook page and Instagram.
