We've all tried out those putting mats - they work fine once then you fold them up, put them away, and then they become too creased to use properly again.
So I went one stage further.
I bought one of those modular astroturf indoor mats from 118golf.com which builds out to 8' x 4'. This cost less than £40.
I then had a same size 16" piece of plywood delivered and glued the astroturf pieces to it.
So now I have a solid putting green which I can lean up against the wall in my conservatory when not in use, but quickly lie down and use anytime I want.
The turf runs at about 8.5 on a stimp so it's pretty quick and I can put a book under one side of the board to make a breaking putt if I want.
All I need to do now is learn how to putt as the best I've done so far is 60/100.
