I make my way to the course on nice days during the winter to practice. 
 

Never had a practice mat that was close enough to the real thing to use. 
 

Medium is what I typically play on.

1. Bill from San Francisco
2. I keep it sharp by trying to play on a course whenever possible. I've been trying to get into using PuttOut
3. I don't currently own one but was starting to look after reading your reviews. I had a rollup foam one in college.
4. I would choose Medium green speed.

Practice on a cheap smooth artificial putting strip that does not roll like a real green.

I have had the above described mat for years. My putting is awesome on the mat because it has lines, no slope, and is completely smooth. Doesn't simulate a real putting green at all.

Speed: medium

Corey.   Naperville, IL

Practice on carpet in family room

Most mats I've used before don't replicate real conditions as far as speed and roll

Medium speed

In the winter I have used putting mats on and off for the last twenty years. Four years ago I did some research to find the best putting mat that was still affordable. At the time the Big Moss seemed to be the best option. It worked better than the cheaper mats but it still did not give a true role. 

The medium speed mat would be my preferred option.

1. Chris - Edmond, OK
2.  I play weekly throughout the winter!
3.  They don't roll true
4. Fast

[Clay10Co9 42]

1. Clayton; Corinth, TX

2. I have a putt out, I putt on the living room rug, not a true roll at all

3. I've had the generic foam covered with turf that goes up hill to a cut out hole.  It's long gone because it didn't seem true

4. I think medium would be closest to the greens I play

[MyWifesSwingCoach 596]

Had I not just been chosen for the Ping Heppler Putter, I would be all over this. I was looking into BirdieBall products, specifically the mat and the ball. The mat looks and sounds pretty cool, so I look forward to reading the reviews.

Good luck to all who enter!

2. Carpet in my office, putting green at the indoor driving range

1. Mike Bernick, Houston, Texas
2. How do you keep your putting sharp through the winter? I practice putting drills on a mat in my garage several times a week. I venture out to the practice green at my club once a week. 
3. Current/Past Experience with putting mats: They are too forgiving compared to actual greens and holes. On my current mat, the ball seems to fall if it comes anywhere near the hole or rolls over the hole's edge. This is likely due to a lack of firmness in the spongy makeup of the practice mat.
4. Go to www.birdieball.com and tell us which speed green you'd want to test: Medium Green Speed.

I keep my putting sharp by putting into a cup.

I haven't currently got a putting mat. Throughout my junior golf days I used to have the old basic putting mat and my putting used to be much.

I would like totest and review a fast/medium putting mat as I'm usually playing in competitions where the greens are rapid and pure.
