ABOUT US
Back Nine Greens – Nashville, TN
Ricky Sessum grew up in Augusta, Georgia, home of the Masters Tournament. At age five, he followed Tiger Woods for the first time at Augusta National Golf Course, the same year Mark O’Meara holed a 20-foot putt to win in a miraculous comeback. Years later, Ricky watched Arnold Palmer walk to the tee box on this same course with Jack Nicklaus and Gary Player for the last time as an honorary starter for the tournament. Naturally, this influenced his love for the game and beautiful golf courses.
After 15 years in the landscaping and golf industry, Ricky decided to launch Music City Turf in Nashville, TN, with the goal of creating some of the most extraordinary private synthetic golf greens across Tennessee. He traveled the country with his team, learning the artificial side of the golf industry and participating in many projects that remain some of the largest golf complexes in North America.
Ricky and his team are very grateful for their partnership with Back Nine Greens and are honored to be an authorized dealer. Back Nine Greens cares about the details, and so does Music City Turf. It’s crucial to everyone at Music City Turf that they work with someone who shares their commitment to precision.
When building for people who play for a living and can lose six-figure checks by missing sub-10-foot putts, authenticity is key. The shaping, undulation, 1st and 2nd cut fringe, true ball roll, and the ability to hold and accept shots—all of it matters, whether the client is a tour player or a homeowner seeking a backyard transformation.
That’s what sets Music City Turf apart. That’s the quality you get with Back Nine Greens.
