Putting Mat Good Choice If Home Putting Green Won't Fit

By Dave Hunt


If you're the same as most golf nuts, more than once you've considered the idea of having a personal putting practice green or a good golf mat at your home. The sad news is that this just isn't realistic for most golfers; for a number of reasons, many golfers just can't justify, or even rationalize, the time or space to install a full putting green at their home.

It's likely they live close to the city or even in it where living space is expensive, or it could be that maintaining the green is a little too much effort for them to commit to at the time. Whatever the circumstances, golfers end up feeling discouraged about ever getting a home putting green for their house. They may be unaware that golf putting mats come in a variety of sizes to accommodate nearly any size or shape space. Being completely portable and easy to move is another big benefit about a putting mat as opposed to a full-size putting green.

Being easy to move from place to place is another is another great thing about a golf mat that isn't true about a full sized putting green. With the smaller sized footprint of a putting mat, very little space is needed when compared to a full putting green or even to jumbo mats and are very easy to remove and put somewhere else because of their small size.

An indoor putting green is usually in a designated room planned and reserved for that purpose. After it's cut to order and put in the house, it's not at all easy to get it back out and if the game plan is to re-locate it to another room in the house it will most likely have to be re-cut to install properly. Putting greens in an outside space are almost always bigger, having been designed for a bigger space, and are heavy and awkward to move. All but the most elaborate putting mats on the other hand are small enough so that a single person can handle one. This is the best overall pick for the golfers who wants to practice but can't swing the cost or who can't maintain a regular sized putting green.

The great thing about a putting mat is that for the most part it will have the same affect and benefit to your putting skill that a full-sized green would. This stems from the fact that over half of an average golfer's score is made up of putts; the chipping, driving and approach shots are also important to practice. All the clubs in the full swing game are important to practice with, but for most golfers, becoming skilled at putting is the fastest way to consistently drop their golf scores.
