What owners and buyers said
Copied word for word, each beside the pick it is about.
Works well and as described. Ingrains tempo and a smooth swing. The counter balance allows the wrists to work correctly as they would in the golf swing.
I’ve always tend to leave short putts short or they would die at the hole due to speed and the PP mat confirmed this in the first few rolls.
The holes are shallow, so don’t expect that super satisfying “drop” you’d get on a real green — but that’s completely expected for a mat like this.
It sturdy and stays in place, even when it’s windy outside. It’s compact and is good practice when you have limited time and want to golf.
