TRUEDAYS Golf Mat - Artificial Turf Golf Mat with Non-Slip Foam - 12“ x 24“ Golf Hitting Mat for Indoor and Outdoor Practice (Includes Rubber Tee Holder and Tees)

love this mat for hitting plastic balls from my driveway out into the yard. only wish they included a slightly taller tee. but mat is nice size and tough with about .5 inch of padding to absorb the shock when hitting too far below the perfect hitting zone. bought a second guest mat for anyone who wants to join me on my driveway golf range.

I love hitting off this mat. I have read about people having difficulty because mat arrived rolled up. Maybe because I read of this issue, I simply rolled it the opposite direction and taped it in place for a few hours and then put it on my office floor where I stood on it for a while.I took this to my back yard net and loved hitting a bunch of shots. It really helps my practice. Previously I gave myself tendonitis hitting off of a 4x6 rug that was placed on a carpet pad. It was plenty soft but I could still jam my wrist into the rug.People have complained that this mat is too small. Others said they'll fasten it to a board. I love that the mat moves when I hit a solid iron shot. It only moves a little when hitting off the tee. When you hit off the ground, it moves. It's called a divot.. Your divot indicates that you have moved a small amount of the earth. With a static mat, when you hit down on the ball, my arms suffer from the impact. This doesn't happen if you thin the ball, but that's not the goal. You want to hit down into the ball, thus the mat. When I did this on the rug - ouch - since the rug was large and I was standing on it. If you're used to playing golf on the ground (and you are) then you should be happy this mat moves when you hit off of it. That's what the ground does.Sure this mat could be thicker like the mats at a driving range but then it would be much more expensive. And those mats still don't give the way the ground does. As is, this is a great tool that offers wonderful support and feedback to my practice.

Was rolled up when I get itI unrolled it then put it on the carpet and walked on itIt stayed flat.With in 15 mins I was using it.It works great for me !

The following review is what happens when one receives a golf mat on a rainy day and has access to the Internet. Wanting to work on one's swing during the winter lead to the purchase of this practice mat. The cost of the mat is equivalent to approximately two trips to the driving range but with less travel time and far less snickering from passersby. Both of which were definite selling points. As mentioned by others, there is an issue with the mat laying flat when unrolled. Thank goodness for the included tip of, "please spread it out on the floor, and put some heavy stuff on the mat surface for 1-3 days, usually it will be flattened to use." (Hand to God, that's what it says.) Noted. Heavy stuff is, in fact, now applied to each end of the mat as recommended. One awaits with unmitigated glee, and mild apprehension, for the completion of the suggested 3 day period of heavy stuff application to see if flatness will be achieved. Now, to address Amazon's request to rate the mat's features of durability, sturdiness and warmth. Let's start with sturdiness. If it's ability to be unrolled is any indication of sturdiness then one is happy to say that in 10-15years this mat can be passed down to grandchildren if they should ever have need of it. As for durability, one assumes mat durability depends on personal swing habits. Personally, the ground behind the mat and the air above the ball will help to increase the durability of my mat considerably. (If you know, you know). Lastly, the assessment of warmth. This one took a bit more consideration. One supposes, if needed, one could wrap the mat around one's midsection for an additional layer of insulation, preferably with the turf-side outward to limit skin irritation. One gently suggests that if a situation consistently arises in which this mat is needed for warmth rather than the practice of a golf swing, one should consider giving up the game of golf entirely. This concludes my mat review, thank you for your attention and keep hitting 'em straight!

This seemed a bit small at first blush, but it is actually perfectly sized. I first tried to use it on grass, but that didn't work out; the ball doesn't compress properly. I moved it to concrete and it worked great. The only issue is that it moves appreciably when struck with irons. I had to anchor it on one side with a concrete block to keep it from moving. This may not be an issue for most people who don't mind sliding it back once in a while, but I am using it with a launch monitor and want it to stay in the same position shot to shot. Of course you will need a net to catch the balls (or put up with a lot of dents in your house or garage!).

This fulfills my primary purpose well; I just needed a mat that I could swing train with indoors without destroying my carpet.The mat showed up rolled and it flattened out about 80 percent right away with a little encouragement and was completely flat within a few days. The tee holder is pretty run-of-the-mill but is a bit high for my taste. If you don't have any already pick up a few more. I do wish it was just a little bit heavier but even on low pile carpet the mat doesn't move much swing after swing.With plastic mats I've come to expect the green film to accumulate on the bottom of the club but my Titleist 690 Forged is still clean.While I would have preferred something just a little heavier, this one does exactly what I purchased it for. And the lightweight does have some advantages. I would buy again.

I just recived this golf mat and about my 30th hit on it using irons the matt started ripping in half and is majorly bent from reciveing it rolled up,good luck ever getting it flat. This product is very cheaply made and will most likely fall apart very quickly if you are a hard hitter or use a taller tee with a 3 wood or iron. I stongly reccomend finding any other mat.
