TESTERS ANNOUNCED! BirdieBall Putting Mat

[Hunter H 0]

Hunter Clayton, Nc.

The past few winters I putted and chipped on a carpet as of recently I bought the Callaway 8 foot putting mat.

Like I mentioned right now I am using the Callaway putting mat and I love being able to putt whenever I want to.

If I were to buy one myself I think I would get the medium speed, due to the versatility, and it being most similar to any course I would play.

Dianna, The Villages, Florida

Putting on an inexpensive mat inside as well as on putting green before playing

I have a putting mat purchased from amazon.com

I would like to test the medium speed mat. I play on par 3 and championship courses in The Villages and the greens are not too fast (and I use birdie balls so I know that they do their homework on their products).

Sadly I don't.

I don't have any experience with mats. I am going to buy one real soon. I have narrowed down to Birdieball or Big Moss. I guess I'll wait until after you announce.

Medium

(6) TESTERS WANTED: BIRDIEBALL PUTTING MAT

The biggest knock on artificial putting greens is that they don't roll like real putting greens. BirdieBall believes it's cracked the code. Using a proprietary foam material, it claimed status as MyGolfSpy's  "Best Putting Mat 2020."

Given the state of the world, it seems everyone is adding something to the "at home" practice arsenal, so here's your chance to keep sharp while locked down.

 

This opportunity is available to current forum members residing in the US. To apply, reply to this thread with the following information:

1. First Name and Location
2. How do you keep your putting sharp through the winter?
3. Current/Past Experience with putting mats
4. Go to www.birdieball.com and tell us which speed green you'd want to test

Scott - Birmingham, AL

Practice at the course or indoors on a putting mat

Have had several indoor mats - some I liked a lot, some were just ok.  All are better than putting on carpet

I would prefer the Medium speed mat, if chosen.

Chris - StL Mo 

I use a putting matt in the basement and an eco carpet in my garage to putt during the winter. 

Most recently I purchase the putt out putting matt and a putt out pressure putter. 

I would be interested in the medium club level green speed on the birdie ball matt.

A Big Moss putting matt with training aids including: The Putting Stick, Eyeline Golf Mirror,  Wright Putting Dynamics Laser, Pelz Perfect Putter Training aid, and a Vizio Arc putting matt. 

Used a Putting Matt for the last 8 years, the mats have included a BigMoss Putting mat, and The John Dunigan Putting Mat

Fast

Practice putting on carpet in my house.  The wife loves it when I do this! 

I've tried a couple of cheap mats.  Not realistic and probably did more damage than good.

I would like to test the medium speed mat.

Michael, Long Island NY

Carpet, but new house will be all wood floors and shag area rugs. Maybe good for chipping

Had a roll up matt with severe incline at the end. Ball return on the side

I would try the Slow. I play Public tracks and 9-10 speed works nicely.

i mostly put around the House on the carpet, and will go to a near by range and practice facility on weekends if the weather allows.

I’ve never used a putting mat

the slow speed mat would be best for me

2) I usually practice putting on the wood floor or carpet using a PuttOut

3) My issue with previous mats, is that they would no lay flat

4) Medium Speed 10-11

Winter is basement carpet

I have had one of those green foam rubber mats

My preference would be the medium pace matts

I don't practice putting in the winter

Never had a putting mat before

medium speed is probably the best all around practice speed for the courses i play.

1. Peter LaSalle, IL
2. I use the puttout pressure putt trainer with a wellputt mat during the winter 
3. I have been using a wellputt mat for the last 3 years. 
4. Medium would be my preferred speed. 

[Lakeeriegolfer 80]

1. Alex. Cleveland, Ohio
2. I use a PuttOut Pressure Putt and a SKLZ putting mat with the 3 holes. 
3. I have a SKLZ putting mat with 3 holes and foam under the end. It is nice since it is not a rectangle so it makes it feel like a regular green.
4. Medium Stimp (10-11) for Private courses.  I do play events at country clubs throughout the summer and being able to keep that groove in the winter would be great.
