FairwayPro Divot Simulator Golf Mat

Present for my husband he’s happy with the quality

I have used FairwayPro for several weeks now, and I'm very pleased with the product. It really performs as I imagined it would, which is not always the case with products I've purchased online.I live in an urban area and there just isn't any driving range in my neighborhood that let's people hit off grass. I hate hitting off mats, but I have no choice if I want to practice. When I get to a practice range, I spend time searching for a mat that's halfway decent and I have to adjust my setup so that I make contact with the ball a little higher so I can hit down on the ball. When I hit a bad shot, which occurs more frequently than I'd like, the shock sometimes is extremely unpleasant. If I have a bad practice session and hit a lot of bad shots, my left elbow starts to bother me and I have to stop. With FairwayPro, things are different. I don't have to look for a decent mat as I have my own hitting mat. I don't have to adjust my swing, and fat shots feel heavy but don't hurt anymore. I sure enjoy my practice sessions a lot more now.The construction of the unit is good, and the materials also appear to be of very high quality. I expect it to last for a good long time.

アプローチを練習しましたが、普通に打てます。余程、打ち込まない限り、ダフッたようにはなりません。高価な割りに、効果は疑問です。

Product works as advertised and delivered in time as promised. My only issue was that it was clearly an open box and had hits on already. Threads from the carpet were lose and falling out. Otherwise its a good product and good value.

This is a total rewrite of my original review. I have been using it heavily and have a better perspective of it now.1. It is useful, ruggedly built and not inexpensive.2. Use only on a clean surface, not on dirt. The sliding tray has little clearance and any debris will jamb it.3. It comes apart for cleaning, but is assembled with many little screws, both phillips and hex. They are stainless steel, so they don't rust, but are easy to lose if you are not meticulous.4. The mat will get shaved down in time and a new one is not a bargain at $30. It is both glued and screwed in.5. It is fairly thick so you do need to stand on something close to the same height. The company sells a thick mat, which surely is nice, but at $150...6. The hitting action is decent, but there is a lot of inertia and so is not quite like soft turf that just whips out on those well-watered courses you see on tv. It is better than hitting into hard courses most of us actually play on. The whole concept of divots needs to be seriously debated anyway.7. Both ends need a built-in ramp so it is easier to scoop balls up onto the surface. I made one out of wood for the rear and it works very well. Much better. I also made a wooden ball feeder tray the same height as the surface and that helps a lot.8. It sure would be nice to have a ball strike indicator surface, maybe slowly unbending "grass" or something.9. For taller golfers, at least, the part you stand on is not long enough and so their feet are off of it and don't hold it down.10. Golf is not easy or cheap. It requires a huge amount of time to achieve anything above embarrassing results. The job of golf demon is reserved for the the most senior and cleverest demons.11. How else can you get in daily basic swing practice? Not everyone can drive to a range every day. A day off and you are toast. You need something like the Fairway Pro at home.12. This also allows you to practice a different swing every day. I have practiced hundreds of them already! Watch a video or read an article and out the door to try it. How good is that? Of course what happens is that it will work for awhile, then go away, and so you try something else. The Fairway Pro gives you this flexibility.13. The Fairway Pro, their mat to stand on, a decent net, a ball feeder tray, a ball pick-up device...this is gonna cost you and you need some room, but it is pretty ideal really if you don't have easy access to a golf course for practice. Figure on the spare hitting surface mat as a consumable item and plan on getting a new one every few months. You might find all of this would be better set up on a base of artificial turf (or real) so the balls don't spin back and scatter all over.I took off a star for the expense. This unit and the accessories are pretty spendy.
