hello fellow hoes,
I thought I would provide an update on the purchase of my indoor putting green that I made on Black Friday.

In one word, impressed.
The putting green rolls consistently and provides a fast side(with the grain) and a slower side(against the grain). You can actually feel the grain When you rub your hand back and forth.
The bottom part of the mat is made of a foam-like material and measures about 3/4 inch. The top part feels like felt and not shaggy. At first glance, you wonder whether or not there would be a durability issue. But I could attest that’s not the case. the mat is very stable, does not roll up for warp around the edges, and lies flat on the floor. It doesn’t budge.I wouldn’t, however, let my pet cat or dog run on it because their nails may dig deep enough indent the foam. Nor would i practice with spiked golf shoes for the same reason.
I bought the 4x10 version with one hole on each side. I find it large enough to practice long putts,short ones and wide enough to even practice across the grain putts.
After unrolling it when it arrived, I noticed a blemish at the centre of the green ( see picture.] I contacted their after services department and they were quick to act. The blemish did not affect playability but it was an eyesore of sorts. they were ready to replace the entire green but after a few days the foam like material seemed to auto-repair and the blemish went away.( weird but true)
anyway, I am very happy with the product and I would highly recommend it for anyone who is looking for a realistic type indoor putting green.
if you research yourself, you will notice that their products always rank somewhere around top 3.and I think you get good value for the price.
As to putting better well, we’ll see! LO L
