My course has been closed the last 2 days and I’ve been putting on my lounge carpet.
What Putting Mats do you recommend?

Yea that’s what I’ve been doing , with a 5pI use the carpet, indoor putting can never be like the real thing so I see it as an exercise in perfecting the stroke, getting a nice smooth action with the ball starting where I aimed it and rolling truly.
I have a rubber putting cup to aim at but if I can't find that then I just put towards a coin on the floor.
This is what I have - does the job and great in winter. I think about £35 on Ebay
Only problem with putting on a carpet or rug is that the pile direction can significantly move the ball offline. The largest rug in our house moves the ball about 6 inches left to right on an 8 foot putt.I use the carpet, indoor putting can never be like the real thing so I see it as an exercise in perfecting the stroke, getting a nice smooth action with the ball starting where I aimed it and rolling truly.

Same here it's up in one of the spare bedrooms covered in dust and dog hair?I have the Puttout mat and hole, very much a novelty which lies in cupboard unused. Probably used it twice in 5 years.
We have one of these https://www.pro-stroke.co.uk/? Bought it about 5 years back now, when wedge junior was getting ready for uni. It's good, but the hole is shallow and can only take 4 or 5 balls. I have since putt a Putt Out Pressure trainer over the hole which gives ball return functionality. To be honest, these days it just sits in the conservatory, I use it for a few practice putts here and there during the warmer weather but it's on it's own right now. I am supposed to be moving soon, no conservatory, not sure whether it will go in the new house or not...
