Vijay Singh’s Golf Mat

It’s about this time of year—after a couple of long months of weather enforced absence from the golf course that I begin thinking about setting up a driving range in my garage. There are a lot of plastic balls I could buy, but the issue of the mat always has been the problem. I absolutely can’t stand hitting off a traditional mat—it’s why I rarely go to a driving range. When I practice on those mats, two things happen: first, I get used to the idea of my club skipping off the surface of the mat. That really screws things up when I get to the course. And second, I get a bad case of “golf” elbow.

So I was intrigued when I saw this golfer’s mat. The surface is supposed to “give” like regular turf, simulating the taking of a divot. That makes it possible to take your regular shot—not having to alter it for the hard mat. And it should save the bones from the shock.

This is one I’d really like to give a try.
